Thoughts of the week
- How come Exchange NEEDS so many different versions of "replication"? The latest iteration, due in SP1, is called Standby Continuous Replication. Maybe they are trying to keep up with the Vista versions.
- Ran into an issue this week using "Cache-Control: no-cache". I was using it in the header of the output of an agent that generates a report. When the report is generated for viewing in the browser, everything worked fine. When the output is directed to Word, an error was generated. Removing the Cache-Control from the output resolved the issue.
- Andy Broyles has a nice write up about the advantages of late binding in making your LotusScript libraries more dynamic.
- There are some really useful solutions in this article from Smashing Magazine. I can definitely see a use for some of these methods in my applications.
- Chris Wisnot has a good idea for people who support multiple Domino installations and want to do so via Nomad.
- I found a solution to my iTunes library issue from last week. Hopefully, this will do everything I need it to.
- Now, if this only came with a joystick, it would be perfect.
- I know I am going to catch some flack for this, but here goes nothing. We lost a police officer in my area recently. He was killed while trying to flag down a speeding car on a highway. While I think it is tragic that he lost his life over something like trying to catch speeders, I am disturbed by amount of coverage his death has garnered. I have learned that he was a super person, but I am sure that there are many other super people that get killed every day and they don't get their faces on the evening news every night for a week.
- There's nothing better than opening your mailbox and finding a check from the hospital refunding an overpayment for a visit 6 months ago.
- If you really think that Workflow in Sharepoint is so easy, try following along with the Developing Workflows in VS articles on the Sharepoint Blog.

The more I get into Exchange and the MS collaboration stuff the dirtier I feel. The number of moving parts and pieces to keep in synch is simply overwhelming and seems to increase exponentially as you drill down. I can't help but wonder why on Earth the MS faithful defend this as a good implementation.
Last week we had a furniture store fire that killed the most firefighters in several decades. Like you I feel this is a horrible tragedy, but I don't think it's appropriate that the media is so focused on it. The funerals are over, let the men rest in peace and the families get on with their lives.
