Zusammenfassung:Collaborating within a network computing system includes establishing a peer-to-peer communication link between a first computing system and a second computing system. The first computing system includes a first display device and a first pointer upon the display device. The second computing system includes a second display device and a second pointer upon the second display device. The second computing system receives first pointer control data for the first pointer indicating that the first pointer is to be displayed upon the second display device. The first pointer is displayed upon the second display device as specified by the first pointer control data. The second computing system moves the first pointer on the second display device responsive to second pointer control data received from the first computing system. The first pointer remains under control of the first computing system while the second pointer remains under control of the second computing system.
