That takes too long.
So at other times I email myself that link and open it via email on my N900. Tadaa! its done. But that takes too long too and it isnt efficient. My inbox gets full of links and random text that I only wanted temporarily.
So I thought hard about this today and figured there must be a solution. Here is what went through my brain:
1. Whiteboards. these are online-live blank pages that you can doodle on and your friends/colleagues can instantly see any input you make. is there something like this for text? And yes - there is. Online notepads allow you to store text on their website (which you can then visit from your N900).
2. Google Docs. Why not use the leader in cloud storage? I could bookmark a .doc on google and just paste and hit save everytime I need. Then open the same bookmark from microB from my N900. Easy way to copy and paste text and links from one device to the other.
3. Twitter. create an account just for posting URLs and text that I quickly want to access from my N900. Possibly add a widget to my desktop and refresh it and instantly have sharing of information.
They all work to some degree but none of them are that efficient. First two require you to open websites (might as well open your email?) and twitter works but the problem is twitter is blocked from most corporate internet. I cant access it at work.
So if you happen to think like I do and actually face this problem, do the above work for you? do you have a better idea?
I was thinking of creating an app which allows a whiteboard type solution to this. Like a mIRC chat - with real time update on your phone so as you type a URL on the PC side of the "whiteboard", your N900 displays that same text.
I can think of a lot of other ideas, some quite tedious but the limitation I have is my company blocks almost all "fun" websites.
