So you're going old-school to #LS11 by taking a laptop and #LotusKnows you still need to be kept in the loop with all your important information from Connections, SameTime, Linked-in, Twitter, Facebook, SocialText, Gtalk, PingFM, Plurk, Tumblr and WordPress. HOW? With WildFire! installed into Lotus Notes!The other reason for getting this out quickly was a post over on the Notes on Productivity blog from guest blogger Amy Mack, who had trouble configuring Notes to install plug-ins and then getting around inside WildFire!
So Amy, I hope this helps.
And for you attending #LS11 with a Laptop and Notes client, WildFire! is the easiest way to see everything you need, right in one place - within your beloved Lotus Notes client.
The video covers:
- Enabling Notes to install Plug-ins,
- Downloading and Extracting the install file from OpenNtf,
- Installing WildFire!
- Configuring Accounts and Setting Preferences,
- The different tools available in WildFire!
- Sending Status updates to different accounts,
- Grouping accounts for multiple status-updates,
- Reviewing Feeds from Connections, Twitter(including mentions and direct-messages) and Facebook, and
- a couple of useful short-cuts.
Yes it runs for 25 minutes, but hey - there was a lot to cover, and I apologise that the quality isn't up to my normal standard, I started doing the video at 11:00pm local after a looooong day.
Enjoy!
UPDATE!
48 hours later and the video is still 'processing'. I've re-recorded it, and you'll find the new movies, which include the new WildFire! 1.4.3 features HERE.
