StefanA "The D is supposed to be where the S is!"  More info | Dec 16, 2006 16:58 | #1 My desktop and my laptop are both in my wireless network throughout my house. If I am on the desktop, and my wife is somewhere else on the laptop, how can I send her - say a link to a photo on the net. Maybe I am here at POTN and I see a thread I think she would be interested in. Without going to her physically, I just want to send the link. 80D, Canon 17-55mm f/2.8, Canon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6, Canon 50mm f/1.4, Canon 70-200mm F/4L,Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Canon 100-400 f/4.5-5.6, Kenko 1.4 TC, Canon 580 exII Speedlite, ebay wireless trigger, Genesis 3 light kit

Or even talk to each other   File sharing will work great for just that, sharing files. But you can't put a link in a file and have her see it. If you put something in a shared folder you would still have to tell her it was in there. Your best option still is to setup an IM on both pc's and have them running all times when your on. Or the kid thing or train a pet to take a note to her. 7D MKII ■ 10-22 ■ 15-85 ■ 28-135 ■ Σ 50-150 ■ 70-200 f4L ■ 100-400L ■ 580EX II

Maybe you have a kid already, or could train up an existing pet instead?
