Windows SideShow delivers information from your computer to a secondary display that is either integrated into the computer, such as a small color display in a laptop lid; or separate from the computer, such as a remote control or mobile phone.
There are a wide variety of uses for this technology, from using a mobile phone to control your media library, to viewing news and calendar appointments in a digital picture frame, to being able to manage your e-mail while you play a game on your computer.

On the Windows SideShow Connect website, you can find the latest SideShow software betas, including tools to build SideShow-compatible devices and upcoming SideShow gadgets from Microsoft.
