Are you smarter then an 5th grade XPager?
Thu, Jan 27th 2011 11:30a David Leedy Here's a neat new idea that's coming to
a Lotusphere BOF near you!!!
Rather then having a tradition discussion
format, let's create an XPages Game Show. Complete with questions
and PRIZES!!!
Come Wednesday morning at 7:00 to SW

Im laughing at the Superior Cloud
Thu, Dec 9th 2010 10:26a David Leedy As I type this I'm on an AirTran plane
heading home from Atlanta. I splurged and upgraded myself to Business
class so I could do some actual work. (Don't worry John. Won't
try and expense that. haha)
Currently AirTran has free in flight
wifi sponsored by Google Chrome. Ok that's fun, I'll admit it. So
I fired it up as did 5 others in business class and we all were just surfing
away....
Until it stopped working!!

I think interest in XPages is growing.
Tue, Nov 30th 2010 4:46p David Leedy November has turned into another record
breaking month for NotesIn9. I want to once again thank everybody
for watching. I hope the videos continue to be of value. I
especially want to thank Jeremy Hodge for contributing his Java Series
and also my friends who help me when I get stuck and whose advice typically
gets turned into new shows.
I know my little site is NOT an accurate
measurement of actual interest in XPages technologies. But it's at
least an anecdotal measurement I th [read] Keywords: xpages java

Lotusphere Speaking
Sun, Nov 21st 2010 2:03p David Leedy We're coming up to the time where we're
are going to find out who is selected to speak at Lotusphere and who is
not.
Last year I had the privilege of speaking
at Lotusphere with Declan Lynch on my favorite topic, XPages. I also
got to present at SpeedGeeking. I had a lot of fun, so naturally
I submitted a couple of sessions to speak again. Whether I will or not
I have no idea. XPages is the hot topic this year, so who knows how

Lotus Community
Mon, Nov 15th 2010 2:42p David Leedy One of the neat things about the Lotus
Community is that there are these monthly Web Meetings that take place
on a Tuesday every month.
These meetings are put on by Joyce Davis
of IBM/Lotus. She leads the "Technical Information and Education Community".
How cool is that for a job? Especially in the Social and collaborative
world of today? Basically it seems to be the job of her team to not
only create information to help us do our jobs, but also engage us as partners

XPages Documentation Improvements
Tue, Nov 9th 2010 8:05a David Leedy Just about anybody who has used XPages
has probably at some point or another tried to use the documentation
and found it.... let's just say "lacking".
Well now's the time to do something
positive to try and improve it. It looks like THIS WEEK there's a
discussion about this over at LotusUserGroup.org.
Please take some time and head here to discuss
ways to improve the XPages documentation.
I figure it's like voting, if you don't
take time to try and improve it, t [read] Keywords: xpages lotususergroup.org

NotesIn9 Celebrates best month ever!
Wed, Oct 27th 2010 9:10p David Leedy I don't focus too much on stats, but even
I couldn't miss the fact that downloads of the NotesIn9 videos are
going through the roof. I was always really happy with the response,
but as it stands now we're very close to doubling my previous best month
ever way back in February 2010.
I'm seeing a substantial increase in
the older shows, especially the XPages episodes are reaching new monthly
highs, but I'm really surprised how many downloads I'm seeing on the 3

How I make ScreenCasts for NotesIn9
Tue, Oct 26th 2010 8:41a David Leedy With IBM's launch of their VideoFest event
today I thought I'd take a couple of minutes to describe my process of
creating the NotesIn9 screencasts in case
that might help anyone.
Keep in mind that I like to add slides
to my screencasts and attempt to keep the same feel that a Lotusphere session
might have. Slides aren't a requirement for VideoFest and there are
a lot of great videos out there that don't have slides.
I've found that the key to getting the
best quality is t [read] Keywords: domino

Announcing - XPages.TV
Sun, Oct 17th 2010 8:57p David Leedy This Friday on the This Week in
Lotus podcast I announced the creation of a new website for
all to use.
XPages.TV
My intention for this site is to be
the home of not just the NotesIn9 shows about XPages topics, but that
is will contain links to any other videos about XPages on the net. One
of the problems with NotesIn9 in it's current form, is that older shows
are still relevant, but might not be easy to find due to the date driven
nature of a podcast.
So my intention w [read] Keywords: lotus

XPages Video Collection
Wed, Oct 13th 2010 10:15p David Leedy I've been trying to clean up a couple of
things inside the NotesIn9 Studios. I'm still remastering old shows
to make them iPad and iPhone4 compatible and looking for improvements to
my backend workflow which is WAY more painful then it should be. doh!
Anyway, I while I was at it I thought
I'd post an updated list of all the NotesIn9 shows that are related specifically
to XPages.

Good-bye
Mon, Sep 20th 2010 8:35a David Leedy I've for the most part been pretty much
off-line for a while as I'm in the middle of transitioning to a new Job.
The last 3 weeks have been particularly difficult as I've done little
development and more documenting, training, and knowledge transfer. I
like teaching and speaking, but doing it for 8 hours in a shot many times
gets tiring really fast. And of course there's more then a couple emotions
involved.
Last week I said good-bye to New Penn
