Remotely control other computers with Chrome
Overview
Chrome provides features that can remotely control other computers.
You can use Chrome Remote Desktop to remotely control the computer of someone who's far away (requires internet connection).
It can be used for purposes such as controlling a computer that you left on at work from home.
Google remote control has two main functions:
1. If you log into another computer with your Google account, you can connect and control it with just a PIN (= When using my computer)
2. If someone else creates a code and shares it with you, you can connect to that computer (= When using someone else's computer)
This blog only explains the second function - how to connect to someone else's computer.
