]]> Comment on Microsoft’s Live Sync vs Microsoft’s Live Mesh by S2s http://thecompu-doctor.com/2009/05/15/microsofts-live-sync-vs-microsofts-live-mesh/comment-page-1/#comment-5 S2s Sun, 05 Jul 2009 06:20:12 +0000 http://thecompu-doctor.com/?p=256#comment-5 One useful feature Mesh has that Sync doesn't is that you can connect to a remote computer (that's on the net) from your desktop (like GotomyPC.com, etc). Personally, I don't like all the status update messages you get with Mesh, or that it changes your synced folders' display in Windows Explorer. Just sync the folder I told you to, and no extra fluff, thanks! On the other hand, if you were sharing this folder with another person (not just yourself on another machine), this info could be pretty useful. I use Sync at the moment, because I got sick of the extra Mesh noise. But I used it happily for 6 months, and sometimes miss visiting my work desktop from home some nights.
