Access your music, photos, files on your PC from anywhere
January 18, 2008
Have you ever been listening to your friend’s collection at his home and suddenly wanted to let him listen to your collection? Or wanted to show him pictures of your last college bash, only to find yourself away from your computer? What about turning your computer into a media center capable of streaming music and sharing images. You know the solution — setting up a server that allows you to share files and photos, and stream your media. But even if you are not courageous enough to set up a home server on your system, there’s a solution — use web-based services that allow you to do this without having to set up a web server right on your system.
Now you can convert your computer into a online media sharing center without having to install a web server and setting a domain name for your computer. All that you need is a always-on broadband connection and an application that you can download and use for free.
WeBot (Windows, Linux, Mac)

WeBot is a free web-based solution to sharing photos and music. It allows the user to access and share music and images from anywhere using Internet. You download ehat the site calls a Bot and install it on your system, register and you are ready to go. Just configure your Bot and you have your media center up and running. Just access it from any other system or share it with your friend sitting somewhere else. It is also very secure and personal.
CyberLinkLive (Windows)
Now you can convert your computer into a online media sharing centre. All that you need is a always-on broadband connection and an application that you can download and use for free. CyberLinkLive.com is a free web-based service that enables its users to access any file on their system connected to the Internet from just anywhere using Internet. You can not only access files, music, videos and photos on your system, but also watch TV and have a look at your room through the webcam attached with your system.
Both the site are easy to use and do not require you to understand tech jargons or typing your IP address or getting a free domain name. All that you do is install an application and run it.
Now whenever you are at your friend’s place and want to show him photos or share music you don’t need to say “I wish I could”. Just keep your computer on or enable them to be started from network, and share your stuff.
