Work together with Yuuguu

screen share

10/09/2008 send to a friend

When entrepreneurs Anish Kapoor and Philip Hemsted became frustrated by working together remotely and not being able to see and share each other’s computer screens, they decided to do something about it. The result is Yuuguu; a real-time collaboration tool.

Show me yours. I’ll show you mine

If you work with other home based colleagues and have the frustrations felt by Anish and Philip, check out Yuuguu. It’s a tool that’s receiving rapt attention in the UK and beyond.

This is what the company says:

“Free to download, Yuuguu is a real-time collaborative technology that enables secure screen sharing, instant messaging and the ability to work on the same document together in real time.
 
Yuuguu enables users to securely share their screen with anyone at any time on PC, Mac and Linux. The company’s powerful personal networking tool also allows you to see when colleagues or friends are online.”

This is what the boss says:

"Founder and CEO of Yuuguu, Anish Kapoor said: “Yuuguu is designed to allow diverse groups of people to collaborate online in real time, and the launch of Linux support is just the latest step down this road. We’ve seen a huge rise in interest in Yuuguu from smaller businesses, remote contractors and freelancers as it really does put you on the same screen. It’s ideal for complex collaborations and will become a vital part of many conference calls.” 
 
The software is simple and quick to set up and allows up to 30 people to collaborate on the same project.

What do you say?

Put Yuuguu to the test and let us know how you get on!
