Personal Information Manager: MyNotesKeeper

MyNotesKeeper 10292009As your going about your daily life, there’s lots of thing you wish you had to keep track of it all and this was my problem about 4 years ago and then I found MyNotesKeeper. I posted an article about it last year, but it’s getting better, the author has been [within the last few months] actively pushing updates and new features.

One of the things I really like about MyNotesKeeper is the responses from the author; you don’t get it much with other developers, but with MyNotesKeeper he’s been listening to his users and adding the small thing they’re requesting. It really puts a polish on a great program.

LEHSYS Monthly Report – 09/29/2009

image Last month I was in the process of moving to my new house.

In the interim I thought it would be good to post some social browsing of things that I was interested in while I didn’t have time to write some other stuff; I think this was a mistake.

The traffic was DOWN by 15% this month. I understand that there’s highs and lows in the process, but I’ve been trying to increase traffic, and I had been doing that, but this month I was trying new things and I don’t think it was accepted too well. And it was a mistake to mix my initial view with something more social. So, that’s my fault.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking ‘Essentials’ Customers: No Updates for you!

image I’m very disappointed in Nuance.

I saw on the Dragon NaturallySpeaking Facebook {April 8th 2009} that Nuance has decided not to support or honor their earlier statements to support the ‘Essentials’ customers.

For months, Dragon NaturallySpeaking customers have been promised updates. Nuance is showing that they are not people of their word.

They have practiced deception and discrimination with their ‘Essentials’ customers. They knew- they knew they were not going to support those customers and said nothing; announced nothing.

They wait until there’s a release/update and then unload on those customers the bad news.

Spybot Search & Destroy competitors advising users to Uninstall it

SS&D is one of my favorite applications. Software providers in this field are being just outright stupid.

There’s nothing wrong with being competitive, but asking a customer to uninstall a program so it can run another is stupid.

McAfee, TrendMicro and Kaspersky have no right to tell a user to uninstall another software package. They do have the right to tell the user there are incompatibilities with certain packages and they may incur errors.

SS&D is an application I run on a regular basis. It’s free it’s dependable, it performs as advertised and updated regularly.

If given the choice between using a commercial product, paying a subscription fee for protecting my machine; I’ll choose the free version first and tell the other dolts to sod off.

I’ve used plenty of software that fight against malware, but everyone -EVERYONE- has shortcomings and in my opinion is no better than the other. These programs either use so many resources your computer is unusable or they’re so crappy they don’t catch anything and your back to square one.

Something is better than nothing… you might as well save some money  while you fight the powers of good and evil…

So SS&D competitors, stop mucking with users and spreading FUD.

Spybot Search & Destroy competitors are trying to force its removal | Security News – Betanews.

Thanks for reading!
Enjoy.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking Essentials – the Orphan

image.pngDragon NaturallySpeaking to Nuance is a bastard child to a really great family.

Referencing a post I made a while back, it referred to the Dragon NaturallySpeaking Essentials suite from Nuance. The Essentials suite is a custom package that’s only sold at target; ONLY at Target for $40.

See Nuance doesn’t sell Essentials anywhere else, but Target. The Essentials is not listed on the Nuance website and is not offered to the public as a comparison product. Nuance writes the program, distributes it to Target and supports it, but yet it’s hidden from view. You can’t buy Essentials from Nuance. They don’t want you to.

Released: Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10.1 [64-bit]

Dragon_yeaWith great anticipation, the new version of Dragon NaturallySpeaking has been released. It’s not a 64-bit application, but it’ll install- and that’s what’s important.

The 64-bit version of Dragon NaturallySpeaking can be downloaded from here. Hopefully, you’re not limited by 5gb cap and can spare some bandwidth, the download is 1.5gb.

Nuance is going to allow you to download the MSI installer for free, but if you want a DVD with the installer, you pay $10. So download the file and burn it your self.

Update: Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10.1 64-bit

Nuance Dragon Naturally SpeakingAs a registered user of Nuances Dragon NaturallySpeaking, I’m just as frustrated at the handling of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 AND 10 as everyone else is, but Nuance is close to releasing the 64-bit version of v10.

If you search the support forums over at Nuance, you’ll find articles from 2006 requesting 64-bit versions of Dragon NaturallySpeaking, but all you’ll see is ‘…that platform is not supported’.

In September 2008, or shortly before, Nuance 64-bit users were greatly disappointed again to find Nuance had once again dismissed them. Not only had they ignored the requests from v9, but they had continued their disregard for their customers by releasing v10 with no 64-bit support.
