Excuse the colors



    OK, I have changed the look and feel to even match more to the Domino Blog site as I liked that a lot.  I have to change one more color but I do like the green hover over the links on the right.
          I have a wonderful story for everyone that I didn't write yesterday so I made sure I waited till today for the conclusion.  Hold on a few while I eat lunch and I will type it in.

   First things first, I finally got the colors where I want them for the majority of the site.  Don't get me wrong, I didn't say you would like them, I said got them where I WANT THEM.  One of the wonders of running your own blog site with your own template.  Now I was out perusing the web for a few following links and I came across this
interesting site.  I have not gone through it but the theory interested me.  I think Ed will have his up there at least under most interest.

           Back to the technical issue of the day.  Give me some thoughts on this one.  A customer asks for a configuration of some new software for
web reporting.  This gets completed and then a follow-up email is sent saying it is ready and here is the link.  Now apparently it got lost somewhere around here while on it's journey.   But then two weeks later a wonderful email comes to you and the remainder of the company executive tree saying how far behind they are, etc etc since it isn't done.  A prompt reply simply asked why no peep was heard in the past two weeks if you were waiting.  Why not ask for a status at which time you would have received the same answer....it is done and here is the reporting link.  Ok, I had to vent that some.
           One of the interesting theories of the day is what template to use for Intranet users at a financial company we support.  They are trying to roll out iNotes to the general population and remove client support, but their browser security settings don't allow most of the ActiveX.  Now you said what I did, just push out the security change and all is well.  Well, of course, there is an issue.  They have no rollout mechanism, those machines are shipped to the user built with no update ability.  So it is worth the effort to change or have a SMS package set, or just do it manually?  
Or scrap it and stay with (ewww) standard webmail.  I vote to put the gremlins to work if we have to and get this thing to rest.  Remember, don't let them near the water!

   I might return once more depending on how this upgrade goes in a few minutes.
