Michael Sampson: Lotus roadmap and user adoption surveys
Michael Sampson looks to me like he can see the future. Though he was never briefed on what was coming at Lotusphere 2010, in January, he published a white paper on the Lotus roadmap:Lotus Notes has been around for a long time. Since its release in 1989 it has always...
From a recent LinkedIn conversation about Notes to Exchange migrations
I think I'm not allowed to quote LinkedIn discussions from membership groups in public, but there are some real quotable comments in this thread. The original poster basically asks for experiences with Notes to Exchange migration. Most of the reply comments say, essentially, don't do it -- you won ......
Robert R Taylor Network: Website and Lotusphere video
So I had no idea about this during Lotusphere but it's pretty cool. A group of high school and college interns sponsored by the Robert R Taylor Network were at Lotusphere... and they've built a whole website using Lotus Foundations, the IBM client for Smart Work (Notes+Symphony on Linux), and...

Phil Simon: Technology Today podcast with Ed Brill
A few weeks ago, Phil Simon wrote a blog entry called "When it's time to abandon ship", where he discussed the new FewClix plug-in for Notes. His general point -- why would anyone use a plug-in to address "basic features, such as search and performance?" I am not sure that...

Three days with the IBM Academy in [internal] Second Life
The IBM Academy of Technology used to have an Annual General Meeting where the 300 or so members, along with guests and senior IBM executives, would spend three-plus days in intense interaction, setting our agenda for the next year and taking advantage of chance meetings. Oh, and socializing. ...
I spent today at the CIO Council; the session was devoted to Enterprise Architecture, a subject on which I am most definitely not an expert, so I stayed relatively quiet much of the day. But the first speaker, Gary Hamel, wasn’t focused on Enterprise Architecture (I won’t abbreviate it, because when...
Kelly Forrister, @GTDCoachKelly, ran a guided mindsweep on Twitter last week. I found it useful, and thought it might be handy to be able to repeat it (using her prompts and timings), so I threw together some truly awful HTML and JavaScript to do so. Here it is. ...
A trip to Banff National Park (the final day)
We knew we’d have to get up fairly early on Monday to make our flight home, so we decided to practice by setting an alarm clock for Sunday morning, too. It wasn’t too painful. Since Yelpers had praised Melissa’s breakfast, we decided to go there — our timing was great...

Microsoft paving the road to Google towards a common target?
Couldn’t resist from posting this after having read the artcile “The 5 best, and 5 worst, features of Google Chrome OS“.At page 2 of the article, we can read the following: A surprising way to support Microsoft Office. If you ask a Google executive any question involving Microsoft, you’ll hear the...
An article on ZDNet UK reports the following: …Silverlight 4 will also host HTML content using a control that supports media plug-ins — so Flash will run inside Silverlight applications. Business applications written in Silverlight will become more like ordinary applications, Guthrie said, and will now be able to print, access...
If what I am reading today in this article is true, it is certainly going to be something significant.I would rollback all my criticisms to the egemonic position that Google took so far and will openly, franly and wholeheartdly applaude this move. It proves to be courageous and deserves the...

Just come back from the new Winchester Waitrose. Upsides are: Large; decent selection of food. Looks like usual upscale Waitrose food quality. Pleasant, well-turned out, professional staff (Sainsbury’s Winchester, I’m looking at you here). Clean and well-presented store (once again, a glance in Sainsbury’s direction). Downsides: It’s too far out of town. OK, it probably isn’t...
I recently bought a veryPC AT20 as a more powerful replacement for an aging Debian-hacked NSLU2 that I had serving up files, doing backups, and other such tasks. I thought I’d do a quick review in case it’s of value to anyone considering a machine from veryPC (at the time...
Dialling Problems with Vodafone 3G on Windows
As I’ve written about before, I use a combination of Vodafone 3G and the AT&T Network Client on Windows to access my corporate VPN. Recently, I’ve been seeing this error a lot when ‘dialling’ the 3G network (I connect it via the Windows dialler, rather than the Vodafone client): This morning,...
Vodafone 3G – Position Your Card Right!
I’ve written before about how poor the Vodafone 3G Mobile Connect client is, and the alternative in Windows. However, it’s also worth mentioning that the card itself is far from perfect. It is very sensitive to the position of the SIM Card – having it off by even a few...

The Unconsidered Life by A.C. Grayling
