Remote Desktop Access: LogMeIn

Posted on August 1, 2010 by Jesse Zylstra

LogMeIn is a free remote desktop program for Windows and Macintosh operating systems that allows you to access your home, office, or portable computer from anywhere where there is relatively fast Internet access. LogMeIn allows you to add multiple computers to your list of remotely accessible computers. LogMeIn is secure and uses AES 256 bit encryption. Two passwords are used in LogMeIn: A password to access your online account, and a separate password for each computer you add.

For a full list of features of LogMeIn Free, click here

Pros:
It’s free.
The setup is easy.
It does exactly what it says.

Cons:
For reasonable control over a desktop computer, you need to install a plugin (available for both FireFox and Internet Explorer). A “HTML” version of the LogMeIn Interface is available, but very slow and painful to use.

To use LogMeIn Free, visit their website:

About Jesse Zylstra

Hey! My name is Jesse Zylstra, and I am the administrator of this website. I used to write about free software and programs, online web applications, and new technology -- especially open-source. Now I just write udder nonsense. I also play pipe organ, which I'm told is a fun and interesting fact about me. In the past, I studied network administration. Now I've been trying to pursue a real fake bachelors degree for the last, oh, 10 years or so.
