Are you looking for an easy way
to go over some code with a
fellow collaborator on your own
website? If yes, then you should
check out a site called TowTruck.
towtruck
TowTruck is a tool offered by
Mozilla to developers. The tool is
basically something that can be
used to browse the Internet with
friends in real time. However,
since it can be incorporated only
in your own website, the tool is
primarily targeted at developers
who want to collaborate with
their team members and help
explain something to reviewers.
The function of the tool is to let
you view each other’s mouse
clicks, key strokes, and every
other action on a webpage that
has TowTruck enabled. To enable
it on your own website, you
simply add a few lines of
JavaScript. People on your
website will then be able to view
a TowTruck button which they
can click to enable the tool.
They will be required to type in a
name and then share a given link
with friends. People who visit
this link will be able to share the
session with a person using
TowTruck.

Parties involved will be able to
view what the other person is
typing. They will also see the
mouse pointer movement and
when somebody clicks

on your website fun and a lot
more productive than before.
