Lightbulb [APP] Remote access your NC via Browser

Found a nifty tool on the Market called Browsix

After install point your browser to
Code:
http://ipaddress:portnumber
that comes up in the bottom of your screen.

Its a bit rough around the edges but works..

Webshare lite is another market app that has this functionallity. The paid version allows you to mount your Nook color as a hardrive on your PC. Then you can move directories or multiple files by cut and pasting 'till your hearts content. No wires needed. I often use it to paste audio book folders to my phone and it has been really helpful turning my NC into a true tablet.

I was using something like this, until someone pointed me towards the Samba Server. So now when I fire up the PC, I just browse to a network share on the NC and move files wirelessly.

EDIT: Well, I see you were the guy that pointed some to Samba. How is this better/different?

I tried browsix too - works great. One caveat: you don't even need to enter the IP address: just go to browsix.com on your desktop on the same wifi network as your nook, and you'll have access.

No difference. If u have samba setup then u don't need this. This is just another option
