Share a Screen Session

It's possible for two users to share a screen session. This is particularly useful if multiple people want to monitor a long running task, and it's easy to do.

user #1:

screen -R longbuild

user #2:

screen -x -R longbuild

The -x flag tells screen to allow you to attach to an already attached session. This is also good for crazy stuff like a collaborative Vim session (if you're into that sort of thing).
