Your smartphone is a handy device that allows you to make and receive calls. It is also an intelligent device that contains a miniature computer built into it. You can therefore engage in word processing, spreadsheet calculations, sending emails and surfing the net on your smartphone too.
Another very cool function that your smartphone can do is to connect to your desktop remotely with software applications like Tight VNC. This means that even though you are travelling around with your smartphone only, you can actually use your smartphone to access your files and folders on your home computer. This helps you become a mobile worker, so that you can travel on business trips or family vacations but still you can reach the content on your home computer even though you are physically far away.
While it is fantastic that you can connect to your home desktop remotely, be aware that it may be challenging for you to use your smartphone remotely for extended periods of time especially since the screen is small.
