+== Basic Usage ==
+* This feature helps share Journal/Documents/Mounted-Drives' entries across XOs, via the following two mechanisms
+** Peer-to-Peer mode
+*** In this mode, an XO acts as a server, and another XO acts as a client. Thus, each XO has the ability to don the server's hat (when it wishes to allow other
+XOs to have its shares); and don  the client's hat (when it wishes to access other XOs' shares).
+*** Peer-to-Peer sharing is possible, only when the server and client XO(s) are on the same networks. Thus, peer-to-peer sharing would work on
+**** XOs connected to the same Access Point.
+**** Adhoc-Network connections.
+** Via School-Server
+*** In this mode, an XO uploads an entry to the central School Server; from where the client XO(s) may download the entry.
+*** This mode of sharing works as long as the School-Server is HTTP-pingable between the server and client XOs. Thus, this mode of sharing would work
+**** XOs connected to the same Access Point (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
+**** XOs connected to the different Access Points (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
+**** Adhoc-Network connections (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
