cpwBlog - You know, I was thinking about that....http://www.wiseman.la/web/cpwBlog.nsf/en-usTue, 16 Apr 2013 03:24:52 PM -0500 Tue, 16 Apr 2013 03:24:52 PM -0500 Peyton CraigRANT (tm): enabling Sametime Chat Logging
Saw your rant (I know this is an old thread) but thought I'd add a comment as well. We have also been surprised, but I've always attributed the lack of a production level archiving application as a decision based on core features and developer resources.

From a product manager's perspective, it makes sense to focus on the core platform stack, base functionality and high value customer driven features. Many IBM Sametime customers need the chat logging, and many do not enable server based logging. In addition, while a proof of concept and prototype is easy to develop, creating a scalable, stable, production level chat logging application is a bit more complex (and requires attention over multiple years).

In case folks are looking for a great 'production' level Sametime chat logging application, you can certainly evaluate our offering. We've been providing our Sametime chat logging application since the Sametime 3.x days and we are proud of the entire application (from installation to deployment).

I've always changed the following "idiot defaults":

-Default setting for Explorer - Deselect "Hide extensions for known file types"

-Default setting for Explorer - Select "Show hidden drives, folders, and files"

--Default setting for Explorer - Deselect "Hide Protected Operating System files"

I just like to *see* what's actually there.]]>

Change the idiot MS OS default setting for Explorer - Deselect "Hide extensions for known file types"

For example one of the things years ago that caused a few people to open the iloveyou virus was that the actual filename was iloveyou.txt.vbs, indicating a visual basic script.

But because of the "Hide extensions" setting, it appeared to most users to be a text file, iloveyou.txt]]>

That said, I've had some luck with vendor chat in the past and I prefer it over voice due to being able to create a transcript.

Did you survive Issac okay? I'm living in Mobile again and had to deal with a lot of rain and its side-effects, but nothing else.]]>

My favorite hurricane was back in '86. Headed straight for Mobile and was due to make land Sunday night. Instead it went due east to Florida. Stayed off the coast of Florida for several days then headed west. It turned north at Mobile and came ashore exactly one week after it was first predicted.

There's a reason hurricanes used to only be given women's names. It's impossible to predict what they are going to do next.]]>
