The death of social media

Posted by on 1 August,2011 No comments

Now Goggle + is here and we have twitter, Facebook, Connections. In all this places people post information. The information is not marked in any way so Personal, Hobbies and work stuff is mashed together in a huge mass.

People gets overloaded with information that they don’t want/need to know. I belive the information needs to be filtered. Lets say you have 300 friends that posts 3 posts on facebook every week. That’s 900 posts a week. thats more than 100 posts per day. If you then also have friends on G+ and Twitter that you follow and they might do double posts how much information do you need to read then. And with some people you want to read about work stuff and other you want to read information about their family. If you are following people globally they perhaps are doing posts in several languages and you are interested in the english posts.
I think that people will stop using these things if the information can’t filtered.
That is what I think, what do you think?

>Lotus has a stamp of being old. I have eared this so many times Lotus Notes is that still updating?
I believe there is several reasons to this problem.

1. Marketing of the Lotus platform

2. IT departments hasn’t updated their Lotus software, why hasn’t this been done?
Cost, Can’t see the need to update not that many new functions.

3. The domino designer got free to late

I think that all of the above reasons combined has been reasons why the Lotus platform has and still is loosing customers.

IBM and the Lotus community need to show what can be done with Lotus Notes and that new versions do exists and what they can do.
The openntf och xpages sites are good but there will also be a need for ads/ videos / blogposts about how companies solved their problems using Lotus Notes.

Perhaps someone should announce a video competition for marketing videos.

Lotus Notes is a platform for the future!!

Redirector Custom Control for xpages is released

>My first addition to openntf.org is released today

Redirector
The redirector helps you to send the users to other XPages if conditions is meet or not
i.e The user doesn’t have the admin role, redirect!!
the user is using firefox, redirect!!
an IPad, redirect!!
User is not Editor, redirect!!
It’s nothing special with this Custom control, just that it’s reusable code as it should be. You don’t need to rebuild redirect code for you admin interface, special functions. Just add the redirector to your XPage.

Deploying traveler with ssl

A short post with some field observations if you are going to deploy traveler.

If you are going to use ssl get a real ssl certificate. Then you will not get any problems with devices not being able to connect.

Get a separate ip adress and dns name for the traveler server.

If the above thinks are done then you shouldn’t have any problems 😉

Microsoft got to be kidding 16GB

>When doing a systemstate backup on a very small Activedirectory less than 25 users no special things at all.

This backup takes up 500mb in windows 2003 I think this is huge.
But When I did the same backup of the systemstate in Windows 2008 16GB
Microsoft must be kidding, who wrote this backup of the Active directory?
What where they thinking, I don’t have a clue what needs to be backuped so lets backup all
the files on the server?
Please someone build a Active directory substitute so we can get rid of this crap…

Rules in my inbox is dead part 2

Posted by on 23 June,2011 No comments

>I have now got the inbox rules to work again. Thought I would share with everybody how I got this to work.

I haven’t found any good way to debug the server rules on the server but I found this out.
By reading some code. 😉
1. All rules are resaved everytime you move a rule up and down.
2. The rules are stored in the Calendar Profile document
3. You can max have 100 rules per inbox
4. The Calendar Profile document can start acting strange due to policy changes if you use them
What did I do to make my rules work
1. Checked that I didn’t have 100 rules
2. Created a rule based on sometime in a title of an email
3. Placed the rule at the bottom of my Rules list, so it would evaluate last
4. Tested that the rule didn’t work
5. Started to move the rule up and sending one email per move
6. Found the faulty / corruped rule and removed the rule
And now everything work great…
