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.

What mobile device platform should I write a SOTU v0.4 client for?
01/22/2010 03:34:00 PM by Chris Toohey
I'm keeping two hush-hush projects pretty close to the chest. One of them, I've mentioned to a few people in this community (and their feedback and confidence I appreciate) and one I've only mentioned to two people... so this site might appear a little light on the development tips lately, but that's more a result of my current workload than anything else.
That being said, I've decided to do something more public: an updated release of SOTU, my Remote Console Command Utility for IBM Lotus Notes Domino. The update, aside from some cleanup, will also include (inspired by Bruce Lill) a mobile device client.
The question is... which mobile device platform should I be writing for?
SOTU v0.3 already has a mobile device-friendly WAP UI... but I wanted to add a little meat to the application in this next release with an actual mobile client app.
As I have a Blackberry (Bold), I'm biased in writing a Blackberry mobile device app via the Blackberry Widget SDK.
I know more and more of you are rocking Android devices... but I still think Android adoption for our community is minimal (especially with Traveler not yet supporting it -- awesome news out of Lotusphere 2010 on that front!).
iPhone/Touch client would be the way to go if we were talking the numbers game as far as mass-adoption... but there are logic issues there, not to mention that I'd have to go through a submission process to the Apple App Store (unless you've jailbroken your iPhones of course...).
So I'll post the question to you, Constant Reader: Which mobile device platform should I write a mobile device client for SOTU v0.4?
Please let me know your preference via comment to this post, and expect a very public build on the chosen platform!

Since I currently can telnet, ssh and vnc into my server with my android I would like to see an android app. Besides it's FREE to build and post to the app store unlike some other phones. You could use phonegap.com, where you can build it for all 3 phones.
I just wish the dev environment was as easy to setup and use as Notes is.
Well if phonegap wortks I'm with Bruce. If it doesn't I'd like the iPhone version please. :-)
The vast majority of Notes shops are working with Blackberries right now. With that relationship already very mature and established, I'd say go for the Blackberry.
Blackberry please Sir. Not to downplay any of the other phones but in the business/enterprise environment, where I expect most of the users of your application reside, I guess it is still way on top of the number game. Disclaimer: emphasis on "guess" ;)
BlackBerry please :-)
Please use the Blackberry Widget SDK. We plan to use the SDK too, so it would be nice to see how you work with the SDK.
If phonegap doesn't work out then BlackBerry please! Then DROID. :)
