When you're at work, do you wish you could listen to your home music collection without an iPod or other portable media player? When you go to visit the extended family, do you always forget to bring the latest photos of the kids with you?

Most of the time, we'd recommend Orb. Install an application on your home PC and you can access your media from pretty much any web browser, including the browser on your mobile phone. But if your data is scattered across multiple computers, you might want to check out WeBot.

WeBot lets you install a "bot" on any computer you like. When you login using WeBot's interface you have access to your photos and music files from each machine running a bot. There's no video. And there's no download option. This is for streaming your own media collection, not for letting your friends download all of your music tracks.

There's also a pretty slick iPhone interace, although WeBot leaves something to be desired if you try using a mobile web browser beside Safari.

WeBot is in a private beta right now, but we learned about WeBot from GigaOM, who has been kind enough to give us a registration code that will let you download and try out the service right away.
