The service, called Sametime Everyplace, is aimed at corporate customers. Corporations are shying away from wireless IM because of security concerns. But SameTime Everyplace and several other wireless IM programs are very secure, say the companies that make them.

You'll find some good screen shots and code to further help you along your way. SOURCE: WebSphere Advisor http://www.advisor.com/Articles.nsf/aid/BALAB03 [2] "Lotus to offer Web services toolkit to developers" Lotus will soon spell out how the Domino server and related collaboration applications will fit into IBM's Web services scheme. The centerpiece of Lotus' announcements will be a Web services enablement kit that allows developers to take components of Lotus collaboration applications and embed them as Web services in other Lotus applications or in non-Lotus Web applications. For example, a developer could take a feature in Lotus Sametime that lets users know if others are online and embed it in an online exchange application to let traders know who is involved in a given auction.

Encounter 2001, a Texas company, is charging $50 to carry digitized photos, messages and DNA samples on a spacecraft scheduled for blast off in 2003. So far, 67,000 people have signed up, although there is room for messages and dehydrated hair samples with the DNA codes for 4.5 million people. And the point of all this? "One day, some super civilization may encounter this relic from the vanished species and I may exist in another time," said science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke, who was among the first to register.
