Review - Samsung Note 10.1 tablet - fantastic for taking notes
Sat, Dec 22nd 2012 8:11a Sean Cull I have wanted a tablet PC for years, in fact the strap line for this blog talks about living with a tablet PC. The problem is that it never really worked for me. I would inevitably need to use my tablet laptop for both doing a demonstration or taking notes. I gave up on the tablet PC and decided to wait until I could have a device that was additional to my laptop, The iPad came along but without a proper pen - as in a pen based on a digitiser - it didn't do what I wanted. It was great as a cons [read] Keywords: notes

Thu, Sep 15th 2011 12:26p Sean Cull The "new" XPages wiki on Openntf ( known as the Xpage Documentation Wiki ) has some useful improvements over the older version but the tailoring for its use in the IBM product Wikis has also more complicated.

SNTT : Using Active Directory to authenticate web users
Thu, Mar 10th 2011 4:34p Sean Cull Introduction This article describes how you can use Active Directory via LDAP and Directory Assistance to authenticate your web users. This is particularly useful in our case where we have an XPages based application running in on a black boxed appliance in a MS shop. The example uses a Windows Server 2008 R2 for AD and Domino 8.5.2 running on Linux. The scheme is simple enough but I struggled to piece the bits together so I thought a write up would be useful. Useful tools I found that the Apach [read] Keywords: domino

Thu, Nov 25th 2010 2:39a Sean Cull Please bear with me on this, it is a long post but I feel it is very important, probably the most important issue on my radar at the moment. Introduction As anyone who reads my Blog will know I am a huge fan of XPages. One of the most exciting things about it is the promise of designing only once for the Web and the Client. XPages in the Browser is definitely fast enough to use today but I have been struggling with the speed of XPages in the client to the point where I have not been able to reco [read] Keywords: xpages
