Safari for Windows
I read on vowe.net that Apple will deliver the Safari browser for Microsoft Windows platforms. I have installed the public beta and tested it with my website. The website runs, but some differences exist to Internet Explorer and Firefox. For example, the size of text fields and the size of the dialog window (guest book entry) is not the same as in the other browsers. The dialog to enhance a picture does not work (on the travel sites). Further the text ‘Free RSS Reader’ is not visible. I’m not sure whether these things work in the Safari browser on a Mac platform.

Kosten sparen durch E-Mail-Management
In der aktuellen Ausgabe 4-2007 des digitalbusiness Magazin ist ein neuer Artikel von mir ĂĽber die Wissensverteilung im E-Mail-Management. Ein kleiner Abstrakt:
Schutz von Malware und Spam sind heutzutage unverzichtbar, um e-Mail-Verkehr überhaupt noch durchführen zu können. Doch das ist nicht alles: Das in
den Mails enthaltene Wissen muss f�r das Unternehmen nutzbar sein.
[…] Eine wichtige – aber oftmals unterschätzte – Nebenwirkung der e-Mail-Kommunikation ist der Verbleib des Wissens in den persönlichen e-Mail-Fächern und damit der Verlust dieses Wissens fĂĽr das Unternehmen. Durch die Umwandlung dieses "persönlichen Wissens" in Wissen der Unternehmung lassen sich erhebliche Kosten fĂĽr die Unternehmen einsparen.
