15 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do With Your Macbook

2. Screen Sharing

For those people that want control over other people's computers, for completely legitimate purposes rather than nefarious ones, Apple provides Macbook users a way to screen share from one Macbook to another. Under System Preferences (this is the last time in this list that will be said), and Sharing, make sure the Screen Sharing box has been ticked. After that, the easiest way to request access to someone else's Macbook is through the iMessage menu. From any conversation window, click on the Details button in the upper right hand corner, and then the two overlapping boxes, and finally "Ask to share screen". When the session begins, their desktop will open in a new window over the currant one, and will resize to fit the screen and resolution. Use this power wisely - sharing is caring.
