If you work on more than one PC — say, a desktop at home and a notebook at work — you know what a struggle it can be to keep everything in sync: documents, bookmarks, programs, and the like. Lifehacker shows you how to maintain a consistent workspace, meaning a computing environment that stays more or less the same across two or more PCs. Here’s an excerpt:
Keep Your Calendars in Check If you have the option, web-based calendaring doesn’t get much better than Google Calendar, if for nothing else than its simple and powerful web presence. If you prefer using a desktop application to access your calendars and schedule appointments but you still want access to your calendar from the browser, you can sync Google Calendar with your favorite desktop calendar application.
The author also explains how to sync bookmarks, keep your e-mail in sync, consolidate essential files, and go portable with your programs (so you can use them on any PC). Great information for anyone who divides their computing time between multiple PCs. Photo by danhodgett.
