Lotus Notes News Reader v0.3
New release of my R5.x Lotus Notes RSS News Aggregator. Many new features and improvements. I’m finding it very usable, and useful. NNRv.3.zip

http://falsepositives.blogspot.com/NNRv.3.zip

New Features include :

An About Document
Improved Notes UI (outline, pages, and frameset)
includes a link to an action to process all active feeds.

Moved RSS Feed processing to a Java library. first attempted using a Java library for new agents got dreaded “Can`t make static reference to method”. successful using Java library (july 23).
Created a Agent for reading selected feeds only in the News Feed view. July 22 2003, agent now using Java Library.
Reduce duplicate news entries. If a feed is run twice, rather than have 2 duplicate items either update the existing entry or do not create a new document. updating is preferred, in cause they edited the item, but initially just catch it and don’t save a new document for RSS 2.0 use guid field and channel title to do lookup. for other feed types use item title and channel title.
Changed News views to show unread marks, so now I can quickly scan for new news items
Parse DC:Date and PubDate fields into domino date field, (NewsItemDate). News views use this field or @Created if it’s not available. (or should I use a channel date?)
Changed News views to sort on NewsItemDate descending, new view sorted by NewsItemDate first. even easy to scan for what’s new.

The program also includes a voicemail feature to keep track of calls while you are away or talking to someone else. The program uses your internet connection and voice over IP technology, so there is no charge for these calls. The people you call however need to have the FireFly software installed. We tested the software with an international call (USA to Canada and Australia), and the voice quality was excellent.

CSV-Importer – Free

http://codewalkers.com/seecode/175.html

[Convert a CSV (comma separated values) file to MySQL] The other conversion tool that I found which seems to work pretty well is CSV Importer. As you know, MS Access has a built-in tool that will export all your tables to CSV files. Beyond that, all you need to do is unzip this file, upload the appropriate files to the Web server and follow the on-screen instructions. Note that your database and required tables must already exist on the server in order for this software to work.
