SharedView 1.0 has been out now for a few weeks, and based on blog feedback, it's been very well received. Here's a few quotes:
"Nothing has come close to the ease of Microsoft SharedView." "Simplifying a collaboration interface so it is dead simple for a non-technical person is a major upgrade." "Every once in a while I am blown away by something. Not because it is the latest and greatest, but because it does what it does in such a simple and easy to use way… this is one of those things."

Many of the new SharedView users are discovering it through Microsoft Office Live Workspace, on the Share menu - just choose "Share Screen" from the menu, and SharedView will launch and start sharing your screen automatically. If you don't have SharedView installed yet, you'll be provided a link to install it. Because Office Live Workspace is a great place to store and share documents, you can also use it as a place to meet up with coworkers to share in real time with SharedView to get feedback on a proposal in Word, put some polish on a presentation in PowerPoint, or get some updated numbers for a spreadsheet in Excel. It will share any application though, or your entire desktop. The person you're sharing with can even paste in data in remotely from their machine if you give them control of your mouse and keyboard for a bit using SharedView.
All in all, we're proud of the quality and robustness of the release, and we hope you enjoy using SharedView. Keep an eye out for releases in French, Spanish, German, and Japanese in the coming months.
