Microsoft FolderShare Beta

Though Microsoft acquired FolderShare in 2005, this Windows Live service is still listed as a beta. I use it to keep folders synced on multiple PCs. That sounds simple to do without help, but in my experience it really is not. Since I work at home about 60 percent of the time, I find myself constantly moving documents from my home PC to my work notebook and back. With FolderShare, I set up a designated folder on both computers where I want the documents automatically synced. As long as both machines have an Internet connection, synchronization is nearly instantaneous.
