[NF] Social Media posting to multiple platforms
by Ken Kixmoeller (ProFox) 08 Apr '16

08 Apr '16

Hey - - - My daughter's "photography from a dog's point of view" social media presence is exploding (at least by our standards). In addition to the 2 London newspapers, now it has been picked up by local TV stations around the country. Suddenly, posting to Instagram isn't quite enough. We had been trying to figure out how best to use Twitter, G+, and especially Facebook, but now we need to clone Instagram content on the other platforms. Facebook is problematic, because the page to which we want to post is a page that we "own" rather than my main, personal page. I am actively researching this, but (as usual) you all have such amazing experience, I'd be thrilled if you would share your experience. Thanks, Ken PS: for those interested in dogs, photography, or both here are a few of the links: - http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2016/04/05/dog-wears-go-pro-at-park/ - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3509193/Master-phoDOGraphy-Snap-hap… - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2016/03/26/gopro-wearing-dog-photogra… - https://www.instagram.com/caninehappyhour/ - https://www.facebook.com/caninehappyhour/ --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

[NF] Microsoft turns over a new leaf, and announces new Embrance, Enhance & Extend policy!
by Ted Roche 06 Apr '16

06 Apr '16

No, really. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/2016/03/31/mobile-app-develop… I think the new management at Microsoft is making a pretty smart break from the past. Bill Gate's MS was "Information at your Fingertips" and "A PC on every desk" and that was mission accomplished, though thanks to the WWW and Mozilla as much as MS. Steve Balmer's Microsoft was... I don't know what. Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers? Open Source is a Cancer? The new MS is announcing MS for All! Built native Android apps on Windows! Build IOS apps on Windows! Host Linux on Azure! Lots! of! Exclamation! Points!!! I don't think they're getting out of the Windows PC or DotNet business, but it sure sounds like they are taking them for granted. Admittedly, Day Two of their big conference and they're grabbing all the headlines. The devil will be in the details, as always. In six months, I expect clients will be echoing back to me, "But can't you run your Linux apps on Windows?" and "I heard you can run Macs on top of our Windows machines." -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com

[NF] How is M% changing going forward.
by Stephen Russell 05 Apr '16

05 Apr '16

This new version of .NET seems to have a lot of changes to 15 year old methodology with .NET. The framework doesn't have to be installed on a server and can now be included with only your app. I wonder how much disk space it will take to push necessary parts of the gac? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EGDxkWoUOY -- Stephen Russell Sr. Analyst Ring Container Technology Oakland TN 901.246-0159 cell --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

Outlook.com

Hi I use CDO to send emails via my Gmail address and it works just sweet When I try the same with an email address someone(a)outlook.com, it fails every time with a message The transport failed to connect to the server (error 1429) With Gmail, the port number is 465. From my research, Outlook.com uses 587 or 25 I think Outlook requires TSL but I don't see that option with CDO I've tried the smtpserver as smtp-mail.outlook.com as well as smtp-mail.live.com This same process (below) works well with an internal Exchange server. (Winkiss is a table) TRY Local lcSchema, loConfig, loMsg, loError, lcErr lcErr = "" lcSchema = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/" loConfig = Createobject("CDO.Configuration") With loConfig.Fields .Item(lcSchema + "smtpserver") = ALLTRIM(winkiss.opt15) .Item(lcSchema + "smtpserverport") = winkiss.portnum .Item(lcSchema + "sendusing") = 2 .Item(lcSchema + "smtpauthenticate") = .t. .Item(lcSchema + "smtpusessl") = winkiss.usessl .Item(lcSchema + "sendusername") = ALLTRIM(winkiss.usersig) .Item(lcSchema + "sendpassword") = ALLTRIM(winkiss.empw) .Update Endwith loMsg = Createobject ("CDO.Message") With loMsg .Configuration = loConfig .From = ALLTRIM(winkiss.opt17) .To = ALLTRIM(winkiss.opt17) .Subject = "Test subject" .TextBody = "Testing SMTP emailing, from myself to myself" .Send() Endwith etc Does anyone have suggestions -- Kind regards, Sytze de Boer --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---

Hi gang. Is it possible to run cloud on a local server? Or is it just a web service? Al Allen Pollard GSL --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html ---
