Re: [Coworking] Google Chromecast

That would be excellent if you could share the Chromecast "member screen" 
tool! Thank you, Alex.

What I'd love to see is a version that could rotate the display output 90 
degrees (so I can mount a vertical TV). I've only heard of that 
functionality on expensive boxes.

Chromecast is a Chrome extension (you can install it from the Chrome
extensions store).

We do sometime use it, but it doens't work in all cases - for example, it
doesn't show you the mouse cursor, so it's not practical for training.  You
also can't use if you want to 'cast something that is not in a web page.
Don't give away all of you video adapters! :)

Cheers,

Anca.

We did at the last place I worked.

We had twin 55" color TV's, each with a Chromecast one named TV Left and one 
named TV Right.  Worked reasonably well for both Mac and PC, especially using 
the almost hidden share your whole screen option.  But you need to have Chrome 
installed on the computer.
