Some important tips on using SharedView:

1. To start a session using this program, you must sign in using a Windows Live ID (Passport ID). However, you can use any e-mail ID or even a friendly name to join a session. A friendly name is a name of your choice. This is the name that others in the session will use to identify you.
2. If you want to start a session and do not have a Windows Live ID, you can continue installing this program. However, before signing in, you must get a new Windows Live™ ID.
3. If you are already using this program, you will see an upgrade notification that redirects you to the installation site.

You must have a working Internet connection to use this program.

NOTE - Microsoft SharedView Beta may only be used within the United States of America.

With Mckenzie-Thorpe being an IT services company, it naturally follows that each of us has specific areas of specialisation. My name is Steve Dunton and I focus on the infrastructure and IT networking side of things, with a particular focus on security, business continuity and remote working. I’ll be writing more about all of these areas over the upcoming weeks and months, but this blog can be as much yours as mine, without you even doing too much work! All you need to do is drop me an email at duntonsr@mckenzie-thorpe.com and tell me if you’d like to see specific topics covered, and I’ll do my best.
