Google Docs Blog has announced that they will be slowly rolling out Google Docs Offline.

This will enable you to work one your documents offline and when you come back online it will be synchronized again. All this is brought to you by the Google Gears open source framework that has been making the headlines lately.

I’ve checked my Google Docs and there is nothing yet of this feature.

In Metastorm e-Work 6.6.x

When adding a timed action to an existing map which have folders on that stage, the folders do not get assigned that Timed Action and no entry is made in eWait.

Solution :

I’ve written the attached Store Procedure which runs through all the folders on the selected stage and adds the action where needed to eWait. You can also define what the deadline should be set to.

Variables that needs to be provided:

  • @map varchar(100), - the map name
  • @stage varchar(100), - stage to which the action was added
  • @timedActionName varchar(100) - the name of the timed action that was added

Then the following line should be edited in the Stored procedure to set what the deadline should be. Set the correct map table and field(will maybe update the SP to dynamically to this later):

  • SELECT ef.eFolderID,mr.dteDeadline FROM EFOLDER ef,MapTable mr WHERE mr.efolderid=ef.efolderid AND eMapName=@map AND eStageName=@stage

Hope this post will help someone out abit.

I’m currently preparing for a technical presentation and was looking for something to zoom in on a certain part of the screen whilst busy with a presentation and then zoom out and continue.

I then found ZoomIt on Microsoft Technet which is quite nice, has capabilities to zoom in/out with quick shortcuts, write and draw lines, type text on the screen etc.

Only bad point I could find was that you cannot interact with the elements on the screen(click buttons etc) whilst zoomed in, you have to zoom out totally before you can interact again.

You can download ZoomIt from Microsoft Technet here.

I’ve joined  VisualCV about a week ago, and just totally forgot about creating my CV, and just today went through my mail and found my welcome email.

VisualCV is a FREE service (Why do I keep on uppercasing FREE?) whereby you can build yourself different CV’s/Resume’s which can include video,picutres and a portfolio of you best work samples.

These CVs can be securelyshared to different users, employers, colleagues and friends, or even made public and you can then control who sees what on these publications.

I’m using Google Reader as I have basically 3 computers on which I work, 1 work laptop, another personal laptop and another random pc at home, so I like the idea of using one interface website that remembers what I’ve read and what I found interesting(by Star-ring them).

So far Google Reader has been a valuable part in my online life keeping track of certain blogs and gives a nice and clean experience.
