Lotus Knows the Secret Ingredients to Great Pancakes
Fri, Jan 29th 2010 3:25a Phil Salm It was another great Lotusphere, and though many have already given excellent overviews of what was presented, I wanted to throw my 2 cents into the pot as well.br /br /I had my five minutes of fame on Business Development Day during a short video that had a series of clips about things people don't know about us.nbsp; Alistair Rennie shared his proficiency with a chain saw (Alistair, when your done using that on MS, I have several trees in my orchard that need attention).nbsp; I shared my secre [read] Keywords: connections

Thank goodness for the kindness of neighbors
Fri, Dec 11th 2009 12:57a Phil Salm And to think that on Tuesday morning we had no snow on the ground. The pictures below are from our house at the end of storm after we had cleared the driveway. When we first moved back to Wisconsin from Florida in '98, I bought a shovel to handle snow removal. The snow falls were actually pretty mild, nothing like I remembered as a kid, and the shovel was fine. A few years ago we moved further north in Wisconsin, and with a larger driveway, I decided to purchase a small snow blower. Ha! T [read] Keywords: blogger
Charles Woodson -- NFL Defensive Player of the Year
Fri, Nov 27th 2009 4:58p Phil Salm If you haven't guessed, the 'Cheese' in my blog title alludes to me proudly being a Cheesehead--the (affectionate?) term for us Wisconsonites who are fans of the Green Bay Packers. I grew up in a time when a Packer victory was few and far between, and you cheered for the Pack regardless. In fact, my mother always warned my siblings not to bring their kids over during a game because she wouldn't be responsible for the language they learned while we all shouted at the TV! If you've watched any [read] Keywords: blogger

Fri, Nov 27th 2009 3:56p Phil Salm Happy Thanksgiving! In my last entry, I gave an overview of the Unified Messaging plug-in from Cisco. Another free telephony plug-in available from Cisco is their Phone Control and Presence (PCAP) plug-in. There is a lot of functionality packed into this plug-in, including: Desk phone controlClick-to-callClick-to-conferenceand Phone presence.Each of these features has different back-end Cisco requirements, and can be implemented independently if you do not meet the requirements for all capabi [read] Keywords: lotus

Cisco Unified Messaging Plug-in (Unity Voicemail) for Lotus Sametime
Mon, Nov 23rd 2009 8:56a Phil Salm If your users want access to their voice mail from their Lotus Notes client, and you use Cisco Unity or Unity Connection voice mail, then you should check out the free Unified Messaging plug-in from Cisco. You can deploy the UM plug-in to either the stand-alone Sametime Connect client, or to the sidebar in your Lotus Notes client. The plug-in pulls your voice mail from your Unity server, and displays a list of the voice mail in the plug-in. Keeping the voice mail in the Notes client means tha [read] Keywords: lotus

What are the minimum number of users needed for LotusLive?
Wed, Nov 18th 2009 7:56a Phil Salm I've encountered a few instances recently where people were under the impression that all LotusLive offerings have a high minimum user requirement that makes them prohibitive for smaller businesses. This is not the case. There are several different services offerings available from LotusLive: Meetings (previously Sametime Unyte)EventsConnectionsEngageiNotesNotesOf the above offerings, only LotusLive Notes has a minimum user requirement, and this is because this service provides a dedicated hos [read] Keywords: collaboration

What version of Sametime is needed for Lotus Unified Communications?
Fri, Nov 6th 2009 10:25p Phil Salm With IBM's introduction of Lotus Sametime Unified Telephony (SUT) earlier this year, whenever Lotus speaks about unified communications they are doing so in terms of this new product. Understandably so, IBM has invested a lot of time, effort and money into bringing an excellent product to market in SUT. And when it comes to the limited money and air time it has to speak about unifiied communications, I understand why they focus almost exclusively on this product. After all, SUT is an opportun [read] Keywords: ibm

A New Batch and a New Blog
Mon, Nov 2nd 2009 9:28p Phil Salm There is always a good reason for starting a new batch of hard apple cider, but why on earth another blog in the blogosphere? For some time I've wished that there was more information shared about the range of options available for unified communications with Lotus software. I've thought of starting a blog for some time, but have always decided against it because of demands on my time from work, home and my apple orchard. At a recent Lotus user group event, I asked Gregg Eldred how he managed [read] Keywords: lotus
