Remote Desktop News & Articles

Expansion, expansion, expansion. There are tons of ways companies can achieve it, but TeamViewer’s most recent method of choice is of the multilingual variety.

The desktop sharing software, which was already available in English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German, Dutch, and Danish, has added six new languages to the family: Turkish, Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian, Polish and Japanese.

TeamViewer (news, site) has been updated to version 4.1, offering a host of new features to improve the ways that distributed groups can communicate, share and offer support.

With newly necessary (?) solutions like Twitter-style feeds for the enterprise and blogging solutions for CEOs-cum-blogebrities, it seems the collaboration craze can’t get anymore intimate in the white collar setting.

Oh, but it just has. In an act of generosity of which we thought only Google capable, Germany-based TeamViewer has just rendered its remote desktop software — a paid service, up to this point — totally free for private users.

What does this mean? It means your colleagues can be closer than friends. They can be inside your desktop. They can play with your data while you watch in helpless unease.

But the good news is, you can play with theirs too.
