Lookout for Outlook

Lookout for Outlook 03/06/2004 01:59 AM

Lookout looks really cool. It's a plugin for Outlook that lets people search super fast on Windows machines and in Outlook files...

But I've got a problem with reading these comments by a Longhorn evangelist about how this product gives us a glimpes of what WinFS will bring to the Windows Operating System, not because it doesn't sound cool, but because it's sooo far away... When is Longhorn going to get released again?

I don't mean to be rude or too inciting here, and I welcome the introduction of Longhorn, but doesn't Mac OS X's Finder already have the equivalent of WinFS, or at least 'fast find'? I know it finds files on my computer at Googlespeed straight from the Finder. I didn't have to fork out the cash for Outlook, and I don't get viruses on OS X... I also have pretty damned fast finding features using Apple's Mail (which is free) and the email client I paid for (Mailsmith) has super-fast and truly featured search options. Outlook and Windows have both always sucked at searching...

I'll download and install Lookout tomorrow on the Dell... because I really could use a good way to search inside Outlook. Anything that makes Outlook useful (like Inbox Budddy) is good news to me.

And, yes, if I had my druthers, I'd use a Mac at work, but I don't get to have my druthers.

(And, I spotted a reference to X1 in the comments of the post from Jeff Maurone... I just might check that out too)

Lookout for Tiger's Logout

Lookout for Tiger's Logout 08/14/2004 09:48 AM
While the idea of shutting down — or even restarting — a Mac is a thought many never consider. With OS X, system crashes have become all but obsolete and, save the latest upgrade install, there"s no real reason to shut down. However, as any diligent tech janitor will tell you, a period cleaning will help ensure a healthy OS for years to come. And of course, all those switchers may have an overwhelming need to restart too. The speed and stability of OS X has brought new meaning to "working in the background," and just abut any task can be done in tandem with another — disc burning, permission repairing, cache emptying, etc. — and a user is likely to have five or six apps open whenever the urge to restart hits. So, when Apple cornered the fast-user switching market, I wondered when it would tackle the problem of actual logging out. With a few processor-intensive applications — like, say Photoshop QuarkXPress, Microsoft Word or even iMovie — quitting, saving and restarting can be a cumbersome task, one that can take upwards of two minutes and at times lends to a neverending spinning beach ball. According to AppleInsider, Tiger is going to <A HREF="http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=597">cha nge all that</A>. One of its 150 new features is reportedly utilizing "Fast Logout and Autosave" technology: "Tiger"s fast logout and autosave feature will improve logout, shutdown, and restart operations by reducing the number of confirmation dialogs presented to the user, all the while protecting the user"s unsaved data in open applications. "During a logout, shutdown, or restart operation, Tiger will determine whether an application should post a confirmation dialog for unsaved changes or perform an auto-save event. If the application performs an auto-save event, data will be saved to a special location on the system and the user will be logged out of Mac OS X. The next time the user logs in, the system relaunches each application with auto-saved documents and reconstructs the documents as their state immediately before the last logout." While it may not be immediately noticed by the masses, Fast Logout and Autosave looks to be one of those features that will change the way we think of shutting down — and offer one more reason for OS X users to gloat — after all, it"s the little things that <I>really</I> make the difference.

Chicago Surveillance Cameras On The
Lookout For Suspicious Behavior

Chicago Surveillance Cameras On The
Lookout For Suspicious Behavior 09/21/2004 12:29 PM
Remember that island in Maine that had security cameras and sensors designed to kick you off the island if you acted strange? Well, now take that concept and move it to a big city like Chicago. That's right, Chicago is putting surveillance cameras all over the city that are supposed to recognize potentially bad actions. Remember, we still haven't been able to create speedin g cameras that work right, and now we're going to trust these cameras to catch people acting strangely? Still, these days, it's become clear that surveillance cameras aren't going away, and with so many out there, this is being pitched as a reasonable solution to the problem of monitoring all those cameras (apparently Jay Walker's wireles s neighborhood watch idea isn't catching on). If that's the case, though, who's watchin g the watchers to make sure this technology isn't being abused?
