Posted on January 30, 2009 by Alist

As recently I traveled across Jakarta using inner-circle toll road (a.k.a Jalan Tol Dalam Kota), I noticed that stickers on toll gates promoting E-Toll Card as a new mean of payment. Although no device installed in those gates, I assumed that it would be implemented soon.

It works as other contactless cards like BCA Flazz or Gazcard, just tap it on its reader in toll gate then you can go.

Hands-on Lotus iNotes UltraLite in iPod Touch – a little review

So I spend this little time to make a quick review of using iNotes UltraLite, a web-based email solution from IBM Lotus Domino 8.0.2, specially designed for iPhone 3G and iPod Touch 2nd generation users.

First thing, I really don’t want to mess up my laptop configuration just for this trial. I have Domino 7 running well and don’t want to install Domino 8 until ‘the day’ is coming. Company’s infra also should not be changed. Yepp, I think we’re not ready for Domino 8 yet until end of this year. Fortunately, IBM Lotus gives us opportunity to test iNotes Ultralite using IBM’s infrastructure, by signing up to a project called Lotus Greenhouse.

Basically we just need to sign-up to this project and create a mailbox with a valid email address, then we’ll have a new mailbox at lotus (something like Alisanta.Tjia@greenhouse.lotus.com). After all is set, then open Safari Browser from iPhone or iPod to open Lotus Greenhouse project url : https://greenhouse.lotus.com/home.

So, more detail steps :
