  • Wave goodbye to eMail? Not yet...

    Tired of how eMail currently works? Wish you could find something to replace the current system?

The developer team's intent was to step back and try to invent how people would eMail today without any legacy baggage of how things have been done historically...

  • Save time by automating with macros

    Hi Folks, A great feature of WordPerfect is the ability to automate what actually gets created, so that you can save time by using WordPerfect to complete what would normally be repetitive tasks. Think of how many times you may create a signature at the bottom of a letter, grab data from some other place (like a database), or change dates in a document. Larger organizations utliize macros a great deal...

  • Twitter for lawyers (and others)

    Social media continues to get people's attention - "How do we leverage FaceBook?", "Should we post customer reviews?", "What is Twitter?" are all things being discussed around board tables across many organizations. This site is one aspect of our approach into social media. And, I must say, there has been a lot of good feedback for us. So, I am always interested in...

  • Don't let the SUN go down on me...

    I have always had a secret love affair with SUN. I even bought stock in the company at one time...So, I was losing money in stocks long before this year (not sure of how proud to be of that....). But, the reason I purchased SUN was not so much a love affair with SUN (though I always thought Java had the chance to really drive it for them) but more my admiration with its leader Scott McNealy. He was...

  • Old Office Community Site

    Hi Folks, I have been uploading some of the old favorites from the old Office Community site for people to download.

I just uploaded the famous Turabian template (looks like a thesis in that Turabian style). But I have to be honest. I go through and really...

  • Buying a new PC? Be good to the environment and save some $$

    I know that most consumers are not considering new PCs during these economic times. But, I have heard from many solo practicioners and consultants that new PC purchases are especially attractive before tax completion time (and with new incentives governments are offering in terms of depreciation). If you are thinking of buying a new PC check out some of the trade-in offers that you can access with...

  • Site in transition

    Hey Folks, My buddy Gerard, who runs coreldraw.com has migrated us to the latest Community Server version. So, your look and feel will be a bit different, but it is way easier to keep track of threads (which I am so looking forward to because I have a hard time keeping up with what I have responded to). You can also share images. There are a whole lot of other capabilities I will be playing with in...
