For those of you who collaborate with other's and want something better then Skype's screen sharing I suggest trying TeamViewer. Google it to find it. My trading partner and I used to use Skype all day to share screens. Recently we have been using TV, and it's much better then skype. The video transfer is very fast and crystal clear. TV has many features that are handy for collaboration, such as remote control of mouse, screen switching, ftp, and voice over ip(which doesn't work very well, skype is better on voice). It's very useful if you and a buddy are trying to debug a strategy or indicator in real time. The best part is IT'S FREE. The software can be run without having to install it as well. So the next time you need to help someone debug something try TV. Free version is for non-commercial use ONLY.

TeamViewer connects to any PC or server around the world within a few seconds. You can remote control your partner's PC as if you were sitting right in front of it. TV is compatible with Windows,Linux,Mac, Iphone, Android, Ipad, I find it very usefull especially if I have to temporary leave my desk (example go out for lunch or with the dogs) so I can track my charts, strategy, execute orders etc. Basically it gives me more freedom to leave my desk for a few minutes. Do you guys use TV for trading purposes?
I'm considering the TeamViewer iPhone app TeamViewer for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on the iTunes App Store to remotely check Ninja positions on my trading computer and adjust stops if necessary (via Chart Trader) : has anyone used it for this purpose and can report positive experiences, please ?
