Here is Useful Websites #11:

I am in two mind today. Should it be remote access or...should it be free fax solution? Let me take care of the first one today.

http://www.LogMeIn.com

 

ACCESS, SUPPORT AND MANAGE DEVICES ANYTIME, ANYWHERE.

What does this site do? As the name suggests...it Logs you in..but where?

 

Here is what LogMeIn does - once you create your account - starts with FREE account and can go Pro as paid subscription to LogMeIn.

Does it ever happen to you that you are at a conference, thousands of miles away, with your laptop - so you don't miss any important business and all of a suddent realize that the scanned offer which you were planning to send for your buyer is on your desktop! Now what? Wish you could tell your spouse but you wanted to enjoy the vacation after the conference is over so your spouse is in the hotel room waiting for your conference to get over today and...

 

At times, it does happen what you want on your one computer is NOT available and 

At times, your 'techy' friend wants to access your laptop to see why you are getting some specific error.

And at times.. well, there may have been many occassions where you wished you could access your other computer which is not with you - is that Murphy's Law?

What are your situations? Can you share?

Here is the solution: www.LogMeIn.com.

(Just an FYI, there are few more such services and I may cover one more of this type in my 30-day series..)

So, What is LogMeIn? Here is the answer from their website --

I have joined the blog-a-day blogathon for next 30 days. This is day 11 of the 30-day-challenge.

In these 30 days, what better could it be to share something either I learned from some of the ActiveRainers or some other resource online and share it with the group?

At times, I may not know where and how I learnt about the websites and may not be able to give due credit to someone who informed me about that, but I still want to Thank all of them who contributed to my knowledge which I plan to share.

I am trying to use different field each day - and have now more than 30 such websites. Will I continue after 30 days? Let's see - first things first- I want to completed this 30-day challenge. I am trying to avoid some of the more familiar websites and focusing on some that may not be known to most of you - and still, yes, useful. 

You can create a free account on many of these websites and some of them may have some minimal subscription fees. I am sure, these websites will help you in your business - one way or another.

(Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with any of these websites not do I derive any income from any of these sites - except that I do subscribe to some of these services. Please use  them at your own risk - and let me tell you, I have used them and did not find it 'risky'.)
