I definitely think "screen" is your friend. I'm using it for a long time
now and I am absolutely satisfied with it. Maybe you should give it a
try, too :)

- From the screen man page:

Screen  is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical
terminal between several processes (typically interactive shells).  Each
virtual terminal provides the functions of a DEC VT100 terminal and, in
addition, several control functions from the ISO 6429 (ECMA 48, ANSI
X3.64) and ISO 2022 standards (e.g. insert/delete line and support for
multiple character sets). There is a scrollback history buffer for each
virtual terminal and a copy-and-paste mechanism that allows moving text
regions between windows.


In short, you can have multiple virtual terminals on just one
connection. 
You can switch between them and even take over a session you started at 
home at work. Thats what I do all days :)
