I just have hotmail open simultaneously on desktop and n900 then save the links in drafts from the desktop and open it again on the n900

I would suggest InstaPaper - click the instapaper button on your desktop and view it on the n900 and obviously works vice-versa

I find the best way is to just have a separate IM account and send from PC to phone using IM. When the message pops up on the N900, you can click on the link and it immediately loads in web browser. This is of course not limited to links, and can be used for notes, calendar text, addresses etc etc.

I just wrote a script to do this. You need to install netcat (ncat with -e option compiled in) on the N900 and on the remote machine. Then place this script called get_url.sh in your home dir (or anywhere else you like):
Code:
#!/bin/sh
read url
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.osso_browser /com/nokia/osso_browser/request com.nokia.osso_browser.load_url string:"$url"
Then run this command:
Code:
ncat -l -p 1337 -e /home/user/get_url.sh
Now the N900 will open any URL you send to its IP port 1337 until you hit Ctrl-C.

You can send the url by issuing this command on the remote machine:
Code:
nc "N900 IP" 1337 <ENTER>
"URL" <ENTER>
So e.g. this session would open talk.maemo.org on the N900:
Code:
user@ubuntu:~$ nc 10.0.0.1 1337
talk.maemo.org
You can do this as often as you like until you quit the ncat script on the N900.
