Tech Review
There are times when you are out and about and need something that’s on your home or work computer. Back in the day we’d have to go to the computer. But this is the 21st century and that is no longer necessary. Check out a new service called HomeWeb by Cognitier.
HomeWeb allows you to securely access all the files on your computer’s hard drive and do any manner of tasks like printing or sending e-mails, all remotely. While other cloud-based services allow you to view a snapshot of files that were last uploaded to the cloud, HomeWeb allows you direct access to your hard drive. They think of it as a reverse-cloud where instead of accessing the cloud from your computer, your computer is the cloud and you can access it from anywhere including your smartphone.
HomeWeb has several features including the ability to let you convert your home or work files to PDF format for easier viewing. And for people who have multiple computer screens, it enables the ability to create “cloud clusters” to perform searches on all screens simultaneously.
To use it all you have to do is download the software onto your computer and then enter your e-mail address into it. You’ll then receive an e-mail with an activation code and personalized web address that gives you a direct portal into your hard drive from any browser. Enter the activation code then open the web address and within just a few seconds you’ll have access to your home computer files. The best part is it’s free. Go to homeweb.cognitier.com learn more.
