Synergy

I’m not a blogger (as I said at the panel discussion) but I’m going to blog the way I think you’re supposed to… write what you feel like when you feel like it.
I just heard about an opensource tool that lets you share your mouse and keyboard over TCPIP….and it’s platform independent. So you can have a mac, a pc, and a linux box each with a monitor attached, but only one mouse and one keyboard interfacing with all 3 (and I’ve heard it shares the clipboard, so you can cut and paste between screens/computers). Haven’t used it yet, but a friend of mine says it’s great. http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/index.html. I’m always dealing with cross platform issues, and this should be time saver.
