VNC Alternatives: Remote Desktop Software
After using VNC for a long period of time, I ran into a situation where I couldn't use it.
Last week, my parents were having some issues with their laptops (future post regarding McAfee Total Internet Protection 2010), so I decided to look into some remote control software since they are in Florida and I'm in Ohio.
Since my mother and father have a firewall, I figured this was going to be a challenge to walk my parents through a firewall configuration and allow me to connect to their machines, so that eliminates VNC from my list of possible candidates.

Convert your vinyl records to MP3s
If you have a lot of vinyl, convert them to MP3s.
I know I have a lot of vinyl albums (for those of you who know what they are), convert them over to MP3.
I wonder about the quality of the result. The cost of the device is $60.
Another Web Developer's Handbook
Another site that contains A LOT of useful links.
This site is similar to the other one I posted earlier.
Need a reference site? Here's two!
Reference sites contain dictionaries, thesauruses, conversion utilities, and just about anything else you can think of. Here are two that are the most popular.
The two I use the most are listed below:
- RefDesk.com - A reference portal for just about everything you would ever want.
- Reference.com - The primary utilities used on this site are the Dictionary, Thesarus, and Encyclopedia.
Great bookmarks to have handy!
Are there any other ones I'm missing?

Awesome VNC setup. Check it out.
We have all used VNC before, but DamagedInTransit.com talks about using VNC with Hamachi. Hamachi uses tunneling between two PCS.
UPDATE: Damaged in Transit is down...forever. Alternate Link is found here at the Learning Dump.
