    Default Froyo & Chrome

    I recall hearing that it's possible to share links between your phone and your Chrome browser on your PC. Can anyone point me at more information on this?

    Here is the steps for getting it to work

    You will need to have android v2.2 installed on your phone, than just follow the steps in the link

    Once setup its very easy, just click on the chrome to phone button in your browser and It instantly opens up on your phone, have only tried it over wifi. Quite a useful feature

    Features:
    Send links to browser Google Maps links launch the Google Maps app.
    YouTube links launch the YouTube app.
    Selecting phone numbers in Web pages, launches the dialer with the number pre-populated.
    Selected text populates the Android clipboard (long-press on text boxes to get paste option).

    Just for those who were wondering what it could do...plus an excuse for me to copy/paste on my phone;-)
