So you’re trying to explain to your girlfriend which nifty little gadgets are on your wish list for your birthday. She’s confused, well, probably because you have twenty of them and many sound very similar, but that’s beside the point. Problem solved. Now you can simply direct her to the Screen2 website and show her exactly what you are talking about. She can see in real time exactly what you are looking at on your screen. Pretty cool eh? What makes it even better is that absolutely no downloads or installation are required to run the program, so there are no worries of any invasive viruses attacking your system from a third-party site.  The only thing you have to do is make sure to allow pop-ups and cookies while you are on the Screen2 site. (delete ‘em later)

Screen2 doesn’t work like a desktop sharing application; because it runs entirely from the browser, you are able to surf web pages in realtime with anyone you want. You can use this feature in a couple of ways. Show someone how to do something on a web page. Work on planning a trip together…walking through the itinerary. Shopping. Show your friends all the cute people you’re meeting on those dating sites. (hey, we won’t tell).

It’s simple to work. All you do is type in your name, find your friend’s name, and invite them to join you. That’s pretty much it. Just be careful you don’t accidentally invite your mom to join you when you’re checking out those questionable sites.
