BRIDGEWATER, N.J. - July 2 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — National Adhesives, a business unit of National Starch and Chemical Company, has formed a partnership with SigmaFlow to provide Lean Six Sigma consulting services and integrated software to National Adhesives customers.

I often have people wondering where I am. You know — Revenue Canada, bill collectors and the ex.

No, seriously though, it’s more like business associates, clients, friends and family.

Last year I tried using an email notification that I sent out to my clients. This worked well, but there is always someone who misses receiving the message. This year I decided to use a calendar.

I learned that Google has a service you can sign up for that allows you to publish a calendar. Besides a public calendar I also wanted a private calendar, and preferably one that wasn’t on the Internet. Sunbird was the answer. Using Sunbird I can create a private calendar and a public calendar and if I want to, I can view them both at once. See the image below:

The blue entries are public and
automatically published to my Google calendar.

The public calendar integrates with my Google calendar, and anything published in Sunbird automatically updates my calendar in Google. As well, if I am someplace other than in my office, I can add things to my Google calendar and the next time I open Sunbird in my office, it will already be updated from my Google entries.

Once you have signed up for the Google calendar you can copy the code to put it on your site so it displays in your site template. You can see mine here.

You can find instructions on how to set this up here.

Talkshoe is offering a web based service that will allow people to participate or listen in to tele-seminars, or discussions using a computer, cellphone, regular phone or VOIP phone (including Skype).

There are two types of service offered — public and private. Private ones can be used for company meetings, discussion groups, training and marketing.

The basic service is free…

Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols who writes for eWeek, said in a new article, “Why Is Anyone Still Using Internet Explorer?“:

“OK, how many times must Internet Explorer be ripped open like a hot 16-year-old in a summer slasher movie before people finally get it: IE is not safe. Period. End of Statement.”

Well… if you read the article, you may be asking yourself that very question.

AOL is offering free TV shows to watch on your computer.

“It will allow consumers to stream full-length episodes from favorite series such as Welcome Back Kotter, Sisters, Beetlejuice, Lois & Clark, La Femme Nikita and Growing Pains free and on-demand on the Web. Along with full-length episodes,…”

This is probably something that you don’t want to get caught doing if you are not self-employed. And those os us who are self employed can probably find more productive things to do through the day. Still if you would like to know more about it just go to http://television.aol.com/in2tv.

It is only available for Windows® XP, 32 bit or 64 bit operating systems. So for those of you who don’t use XP, don’t trash your TV just yet;-)

I sincerely believe that your Web browser is becoming the central point where you’ll get things done on your computer.

Today, I found a video to a soon-to-be-released tool that demonstrates what I mean.

It’s a video for the next version of Scrapblog.com, which allows you to create online scrapbooks that include text, images, audio, and video.

The idea itself is great, but when viewing the video, remember that this is a Web tool, and everything you see being done is accomplished within a Web browser (nothing to install).

It’s simply amazing.

Are we even going to need installed software in a few years? We’ll see…
