You should be using the "Subscribe..." feature. Make sure you use the 
read/write URL provided to you when you created the share. Now you 
should be able to do anything from both machines. Remember though to use 
"Sync <collection>" when you log in  on one of those computer. We do not 
have currently a good mechanism for handling collisions (the last update 
win...) so you may overwrite changes you made from the other machines. 
Also, we do not have an auto sync mechanism. We're working on auto sync 
for 0.7 as well as making progress on merging.

Cheers,
