Conference Call Systems and Security

I found a very interesting article talking about the security surrounding conference call systems, and the ease there is with some systems to allow you to eavesdrop in on calls.
Your competitors are simply dialing into insecure conference call lines and silently listening in. This happens at all levels … from the executive team making bajillion dollar decisions all the way down to those of us in the trenches talking shop on the technologies we use to build solutions. And the problem is only going to get worse as the workforce continues to migrate to more distributed environments.

It's a great article, and a really good read.   I even mentioned it to an acquaintance, and told me of a time it happened to him.

Error 217 - Error creating product object on Domino 64 bit

I'd like to share something with you.   An error that you'll get if you are trying to use ODBC with Domino 8.5.1 64bit. It starts out with an agent error of Error 217.  The text of the error is "Error creating product object" You can read about it here on the Notes/Domino forum . You can find the solution here as well . I guess I'm now waiting for Domino 8.5.2 for a solution for this.   It would have been nice to have had this in the release notes.  It would have help me greatly.

Lotus Trading Cards

I was painting the house last night, and my mind got to wandering... Bruce Elgort mentioned on Twitter last night that he was thinking of a VC fund for Lotus projects. So my mind wandered about that, and turned to how we present ourselves. I got to thinking that business cards are so ... old school. I think we need Trading Cards. So, here are the first few I've come up with.
