Turn Your Gadget into a Convenient Extra Monitor for Your Mac or PC

Two heads are better than one. Likewise, two displays connected to your computer are expanding your workspace and boost your productivity. These days you can set up a second monitor with no fuss. However, the snag is that you’ve got to buy it as well as you need some extra space on the table where you can put it. The waste of energy is also an issue. An additional screen means getting an additional zero in your electricity bills. It looks like the idea of having a secondary screen has more than one Achilles’ heel, doesn’t it?

Don’t fret. Some brainiacs have resolved the problem and found a way to minimize the inconveniences of using an extra display in quite a brilliant way. Just take a look at your smartphone or a tablet. Don’t they have a screen? A cutting-edge utility named iDisplay can turn your iOS/Android gadget into an additional fully-fledged computer monitor. And it is as easy as ABC.
