Domino Blog Template - list of DX TagsDenny Russell March 1 2010 03:00:25 PMWith all the talk going on lately about the Domino Blog template, I had commented on Steve Castledine's Blog that I was going to add some documentation. So over time I will do that.When of the people I follow on Twitter just asked for documentation on the DX tags and I gave them this link. So I thought this would be a good start to giving back.

The 1352 Report: Why aren’t you listening?Denny Russell February 5 2010 03:36:23 PMI've been catching up on my podcasts and recently added 'The 1352 Report' to my list. While I'm not sure what that stands for, maybe I'll learn on an older podcast as I listen to them all. It starts with a good group of people (Sean Burgess, Bruce Elgort, Jess Stratton and Carl Tyler) and occasionally a guest or two shows up to make things even better. This is the way a podcast should be done. I find myself very engaged in the conversation and at times wanting to answer out loud to some of the comments or questions. My only complaint is that they don't have any fun when they do these! : ) Seriously, it's fun to listen too and you learn a few things along the way. I only wish I could see the IM messages going back and forth as you know there's a whole lot going on that we never get to hear.They actually gave me a few ideas of what I could do with this site and who knows, you might even hear a podcast coming from here before long. Congrats to all involved on a job well done. Looking forward to the next one.

Mmmm, Delicious App for BlackBerryDenny Russell February 1 2010 08:00:00 AMI love using Shared Bookmarks. I've taken a liking to Delicious because I can get them from anywhere. I try to tag each website I encounter and organize it so I can easily find it later. I tend to share them with my coworkers as well.Now I found the app for my Blackberry that will allow me to view my Delicious Bookmarks on my Blackberry. The people at Mindberry.net have come up with a very nice software.
You can copy this location, http://mindberry.net/DeliciousApp/ota/, and send it to your Blackberry for the over the air installation.
Blackberry Keyboard ShortcutsDenny Russell January 31 2010 10:30:00 PMI've compiled a list of shortcuts I've come across. Some by accident, others from searching the web. Feel free to reply and add any you may have found or that I may have forgotten on my list.Inbox Functions: T - Top of the page B - Bottom of the page Space - Page down Alt + O - will show a list of all your sent messages. Alt + I - will show a list of all your received messages. Alt + S - will show a list of all your SMS text messages. Alt + P - will show a list of all your phone logs. Alt + V - will show a list of all your voice mail logs. New Message: Hold down the letter key to Capitalize. Press the space twice to enter a period. Alt + left shift key - turn on Number Lock L + D - will insert the current date L + T - will insert the current time Phone functions: ALT - Holding in this key will allow you to dial letters in a phone number. (i.e. 1800-ibm4you). Menu key - You can multitask while on the phone by hitting the BlackBerry menu key during a call and selecting Home Screen. You’ll then have access to email, your address book, etc. However, most Blackberry's don’t allow for simultaneous voice and data transfer, so internet access, sending/receiving email will be unavailable while on a call. BlackBerry Browser: Space - will enter a period (dot) in your web address Shift + Space - will enter a back slash in web address A - will add an item to bookmarks list K - will bring up your bookmark list R - refresh a web page I - display a list of the last 20 pages visited O - open browser options End Call - will close you out of the browser. Back to basics: starts and stops If BlackBerry slows down, starts malfunctioning or freezing, always try removing the battery and SIM card, if the device has one, and waiting a few seconds before reinserting it. 95 percent of the issues BlackBerry users experience, are resolved by simply removing the battery.
