Windows desktop Search : Add-in for Lotus Notes

Isn't it cool?

The Windows Desktop Search Add-in for Lotus Notes is a protocol handler that allows you to index the content of Lotus Notes e-mail, contacts, calendar items, and journal items stored on your computer.
Once you have installed this Add-in, Windows Desktop Search (WDS) will index the content of your locally stored Lotus Notes databases. Indexing will occur when your PC is idle, or when you tell WDS to ‘Index Now’. Once the index is updated you can immediately search your Lotus Notes content.

Baware though, it caused problems for me, I was continuously getting these.

Error: 'Windows cannot find 'Notes:///8525666600461713' occurs when attempting to open bookmarks in Notes
When users click local bookmarks on the left sidebar in Notes® 8 Standard Configuration, an error message displays indicating an operating system error and that "Windows cannot find" the file. This does not occur when using Notes 8 Basic Configuration.

Solution: Uninstall the plug-in and install it with latest version of Windows Search.

 

 

Good Luck!!

Weird ways to save our planet

I agree that there is growing need to save our planet. Global Warming is another major trouble next generation will face. But reading these weird ways to save our earth is just weirdest things I have ever heard.

 

8 weird ways to save the Earth

Geoengineering, or deliberately tinkering with the earth's climate, could help if global warming proves disastrous for mankind, but the ideas are untested and the risks unknown.

Every idea evolution starts with some weirdness in the beginning. Nobody ever thought about reality in Wireless Electricity (WiTricity) to illuminate a room without any wiring, guess what? it is coming to market hopefully next year. So I am amazed with thinking the scientist have put together to gather alternate ways for saving our planet.

There are several ways to reduce the green house effect, viz, "Reducing emission of green house gas", "Plant trees", "Conserve Energy and Water", and on and on... There is no alternatives to these everyday solutions, but they require a lot of awareness especially in developing and underdeveloped countries like India and China which are achieving their GDP growth at the cost of our planet. Till the awareness and their growth is achieved, it will be futile to get the everyday solutions are implemented and addressed. So these alternatives will boost the plan for saving the planet. Agreed, they are weird solutions, but they are not implemented yet, it will be a while before the real one strikes and get the venture capitalists lock on it. This is just the beginning, there will  be a lot more such ideas to come.

I saw the MasterCard Advertisement about "Helping your dad to be a better man"... priceless. The target audience for awareness is changing now, there are more kids who are climate change aware than before. The environmentalists are finding newer ways to make people aware.

 

Being a father I hate this advertisement, but this is the most innovative way I have seen to make people aware. I guess they are the ones who are going to face it, I will be long gone before that, but I just don't want them to curse us for what we have done... or how we did not do anything to save this beautiful planet...
