Using Ajax to manipulate Lotus Notes documents
Joachim Dagerot has published an article on developerWorks on using AJAX to manipulate Lotus Notes documents. From the article introduction:
Giving users instant feedback instead of the time-consuming page reloads they’re used to is simple when you use Ajax. Discover how a view and an agent can help you build Ajax-driven applications and learn how to define an API for getting the client and the Domino server to collaborate.
If Joachim is in the mood for an update to the article I would like to see how to do this using dojo as the Javascript Toolkit for the AJAX calls – especially considering the latest on IBM and dojo 🙂
Update: Joachim is in the mood and is asking for ideas on what to focus on with regards to Domino and dojo.

Microsofts Skyscrapr architecture site launched
Microsoft has just launched a community for IT architects called Skyscrapr. Skyscrapr is described as:
Skyscrapr is your window on the architectural perspective. Discover the different disciplines of system architecture, as well as perspectives on building successful systems. Check out our architects’ blogs, learn about industry trends, download webcasts, watch videos, find training, and more.
The site contains several blogs but I have trouble subscriping to the RSS feeds using Bloglines. Perhaps this is due to the site just recently being launched. The site looks promosing though and I plan to have a further look at the site later.
