The net is replete with some decent DO's an DON'Ts of LinkedIn. I wont rehash them here in detail...but the highlights are typically the following: - Don't accept every single invitation - Don't request an invite to someone you don't know without a thrid party introduction request - Try not to be a LinkedIn Rolodex whore - Don't...

That's right. And Symantec doesn't tell you that until it's too late. My Norton Internet Security 2006 was up for subscription renewal. I had purchased it over a year ago as a bundle with Password Manager 2004. PM 2004 is a nifty little app that prefills my id's and passwords as well as name and address into windows and web forms. Very...

Lotus Notes gives me great opportunity to visualize many of the methods that should not be employed in application design. Today's snack is the storage of user preferences when using a web application. In the Lotus Domino Web Access client from IBM, I prefer to view my Calendar as a month-at-a-glance. By default, the calendar displays as a single...

A few annoyances with the Lotus Domino Web Access console, a web client they offer..I am using it for the advanced real estate (smaller fonts mean I can display more inbox mail) and because it is slightly better than their thick client. Oh, I use Microsoft's fine web browser, version 7.0. Have fun going nuts with these inefficiencies: Create a new...

The honeymoon is over with IBM's Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook. Only 4 out of 5 emails I sent today actually went out. One, fairly lengthy email with a PPT attachment apparently went into the abyss. It is in my Outlook sent folder, but I have yet to get a single response to mail. Speaking of the Sent folder..yet another reason not to use the...

I installed the Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook. This is the IBM utility for Domino. Forget about the free Microsoft download, I could not get that to even recognize my mailbox. Anyway, this utility installed, and while the interface to mail was much nicer in Outlook 2007, there is still no joy with this marriage. Here's the problem: All message...

It's 18 degrees outside today. The kind of day where your spit freezes before it hits the ground; and some guy passes me on the street drinking his iced latte from Starbucks. Another guy pulls out dental floss while riding the downtown E train and proceeds to clear the gaps between his teeth. Only in New York.

This is my continuing rant on Lotus Notes & Domino. This application has to be the single most difficult email reader I have ever seen. Since I have to use it for work, all I can do is rant and continue my long list of what not to do when designing applications. It's a pretty healthy list and is great to fall back on when I want to be reminded...
