Using TeamSpace's Functions

1. Share documents and URLs by dragging the icon into the TeamSpot window in the upper right (which will expand the buddy list showing all machines connected to your space) and dropping over the destination machine name. You may display files on the public desktop by dropping into Teamspace-left (left screen) or Teamspace-right (right screen). Right now, you cannot drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste across screens, nor can you drag entire folders/multiple files at a time.
