Products & Applications

Showtime
My Blackberry Enterprise Server Push Utility for the Lotus Notes Client, allows you to create Jobs for individual Channel, Message, and Browser Content Pushes, as well as allows you to delete Pushed Channel Icons from defined recipient devices.

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.

How to create whitehat viruses in Lotus Notes (or, I don't *need* you to click on my buttons anymore)!

11/04/2009 11:58:31 AM by Chris Toohey

How many times have you created an email with a Button, which you've coded with Formula or - hopefully - LotusScript that's been designed to perform some function? And how many times do people just ignore those emails? Sure, they open the email once, but they never click on your button for whatever silly reason they have. Ultimately, you're hard work is ignored and didn't get the chance to do whatever you wanted/needed it to do.

Time Tracker is now on OpenNTF.org!

10/13/2009 03:50:41 PM by Chris Toohey

For my Lotus-themed works...

My development deep-dives are going to go into the appropriate product wiki.

My editorials are going to go into LotusJournal.com.

So it only makes sense that my open source applications and utilities go into our community's open source catalog: OpenNTF.org!

Thus, I've create Project: Time Tracker, which will now be run out of OpenNTF.org. So you can either submit feedback, request features and functionality here or over in the OpenNTF.org product page.

If you have an application that helps you get through the day - and both own the IP and are okay with the GNU or Apache licensing model - put it online and help your fellow yellowbleeders!
