Use Splashtop to Remotely Access Any of Your Files Anywhere

I discovered Splashtop from @mraabbe on twitter. Splashtop is an amazing program that true makes a teachers life easier and helps you deliever the “best-in-class remote desktop experience.”  Splashtop is a remote desktop service. It allows you to remote control your Windows or Mac computer from a mobile device, either via local WiFi or over the Internet.

Imagine the possibilities of using your ipad to control your computer.  I am now able to edit/play my powerpoint and play a flash video. It is truly the easiest way to access all of your content from ANY device ANYWHERE!  New York Times called it “both a breakthrough and a bargain.”

 

Splashtop has won the prestigious “Most Innovative Product” award from PC World, the “Best of What’s New” award from Popular Science and the ”Best of 2012 CES” award from LAPTOP Magazine.
