I have been searching a way to become a bit more mobile and less desk-bound. I do most of my work on the desktop but I want to use the ol’ laptop a bit more but was trying to work out how I organise all my job folders. Do I put all my files onto a cloud server? I use dropbox and iDisk for some things but not my main working files. Doesn’t feel that safe to have them out in the ether somewhere. What if they get lost and I never see them again? I decided to try with iDisk but then I discovered that my files wouldn’t all fit! So what to do now….

 
I came across a mac app called Sharetool. Which is a great app that lets you securely access your home network from anywhere. So now I can pop over to mums, let her babysit and I can get on with some work! Or I could go to the coffee shop, use their wifi and do some work (but I must say I do hate when people take up valuable hot chocolate drinking tables with their portable offices for hours on end, so maybe I wont be doing that).

 
Not only will Sharetool offer me access to my files, I can access my whole iTunes Library, my iPhoto Library and I can browse the web securely as it encrypts all my web traffic and routes it through my home network. It also supports connecting to multiple networks at the same time.
