Screen sharing with skype

[today’s run: nada]

My coworker and I needed a way for him to watch me do some work.  We have had some experience with GoToMeeting and other such systems.

I really didn’t need to have him drive my mouse and keyboard, just see the screen.

I found that Skype has that ability.  To lessen the load on the home network, I did not use video on my end but he did.  So he could hear me and see my screen while I could hear and see him.  It worked out pretty well.

And it was free.
