Time Tracker
The idea is simple. At the start of your day - upon completion of your first task - create an entry highlighting what you did and whether you feel it was an efficient or inefficient use of your time. Based on several requests, you can also select the priority, apply categories, or even align your time against a project.
For Lotus Notes Client v8.0 and above, you can use the Time Tracker Widget to make this process even easier!
Zephyr
My Configuration-based Rich Text Mail Merge and Emailing Utility, Zephyr allows you to create rich, data-driven emails to support automated workflow - all via Microsoft Word Mail Merge-like architecture. Dear <firstname> allows you to personalize each email message not only to the individual recipient, but also to the individual application workflow event!
xCopy
xCopy is a simple configurable xCopy client for the Lotus Notes client. By creating and defining xCopy Profiles, you can batch process your file backup or remote upload jobs. With the addition of the xCopy sidebar widget, you can easily kick-off these jobs, and modify both the xCopy Profiles and xCopy itself.

Zen-Coding: HTML and CSS hi-speed markup coding
01/23/2010 02:57:00 PM by Chris Toohey
Listening to the Boagworld Podcast while cleaning my kitchen today, I heard their quick review of Zen-Coding, an HTML and CSS hi-speed coding plug-in for pretty much every Text Editor out there.
This plug-in is brilliant: it allows you to write a string of Zen-Code markup/code which expands to nested markup on-the-fly!
div#content.wide.column>h1+ul#nav>li.item$*5>a
... becomes:
<div id="content" class="wide column">
<h1></h1>
<ul id="nav">
<li class="item1"><a href=""></a></li>
<li class="item2"><a href=""></a></li>
<li class="item3"><a href=""></a></li>
<li class="item4"><a href=""></a></li>
<li class="item5"><a href=""></a></li>
</ul>
</div>
An excellent shortcut for the most tedious combinations of nested elements, classes, and attributes.
As I am an Aptana user - it's the editor that I use to create the majority of my IBM Lotus Notes Domino Web Applications - so I was eager to test this thing out.
Installing this AptanaMonkey script is a breeze, and I can see this shortcut immediately boosting my markup output. Highly recommended for IBM Lotus Notes Domino Web Application Developers who write their own markup!

Coolness!
Sounds great! Any idea where I can still get a version of Aptana Studio old enough to run the Domino Developer Plugin for Aptana Studio?
