Now that many of us are running Android 2.2 (Froyo) on our phones, one of the greatest new features is the ability to run an application called Chrome to Phone, which allows the user to send a link from a desktop browser to an Android phone with a simple click of the button in Google's Chrome or Firefox (through the use of an extension).
After using Chrome to Phone for a month or so, I found myself wishing that is had the opposite functionality as well, to send a link from my phone to my desktop browser so I don't have to go through the hassle of cutting and pasting and e-mailing the link to myself.
Well I no longer have to wait to be able to do that. Lifehacker just posted an article on a new app called Android2cloud, which does the opposite of what Chrome to Phone does. From the Lifehacker article:
"After installing the Android app (available at the stie and in the Market), installing the Chrome extension, and authenticating both apps through your Google account, you'll get one-button transmission powers between your two Google browsers. You can copy/paste a URL through android2cloud itself, but it's easier to hit the "Share page" option on a web page and choose android2cloud as the vessel.
Android2cloud is a free download for Android and Chrome, and requires a Google account to connect the two."
Here's the link to the google code site for the Chrome extension and the application: android2cloud
Now stop reading this and download it! Let me know what you think about it in the comments.
