Collaborative computing is an environment that allows participants to share their information synchronously or asynchronously so that they can do their job more effectively and accurately. In the past, collaborative computing has included e-mail, Internet chatting, whiteboard, videoconferencing as well as other Internet application programs. In this paper, we introduce a system in which participants can share their documents and databases through the web for more efficient collaboration. The user can host their web browser across other terminals using URL, Form, Scroll, and Window Size Synchronization. URL Synchronization controls synchronously the movement and direction of Internet browsing while Form Synchronization allows the user to show inputs on the web in real-time. Scroll Synchronization is used to control the scrolling of the web page for sharing the same part in the web browser whereas Window Size Synchronization adjusts the length and width parameters of the web browser.
