IBM Blue Spruce Highlights Future of Web Collaboration — IBM demonstrates a new Web collaboration project, called Blue Spruce for eWEEK. This coup in application development lets multiple users work together through what looks like shared screens and communicate via telepresence. Though only in a proof of concept phase, the messaging and collaboration solution could be a big step in more collaborative Web services. Questions remain: Will Blue Spruce appear in Lotus or WebSphere? Will Microsoft respond via SilverLight, or Adobe via Flash? - When the subject turns to browser-based innovation, you'd be forgiven if the hallowed acronym IBM didn't immediately pop up into the conversation, along with vendors...

Nokia announces Lotus Notes support for S60 smartphones — So much for mSuite5. Nokia announced today that it will launch a new software application next month with IBM to bring OEM Lotus Notes support to select S60 phones. The Lotus Notes Traveler solution will become available initially for 44 different handset models and will make S60 accessible to “140 million licensed [Lotus Notes] users”. 140 million, eh?

But what does it look like in person? Thanks to a turntable and... [Tags: chrysler, congress, dodge, ev, flourish]

Use scripts to improve install process for Lotus Notes — For those of us who must use Lotus Notes (LN) on Mac OS X, it is the bane of our existence. The installer is basically broken, and it's not configured for multi-user setup. But today, all that changes! I have devised a series of procedures to make LN easier to install, and also to make it "multi-user aware." These notes are known to work with LN 7.0.3, but may work with any R7 flavor, and may be able to be altered for 6.5.6, which is the last 6.5x version for OS X.Some of the problems with the LN installer :Sometimes...
