Daylite Bonus
Hey all you Daylite users – WhoPaste jump starts your process!
WhoPaste can set at least 30 different Daylite values including creating a new opportunity.

Today we are releasing WhoPaste 4.4.
It’s on the servers now for new downloads.
We’ll be pushing out the updater later today

WhoPaste is now the fastest way to create contacts – period!

Until today the promise of WhoPaste was its text extraction capabilities.
This is good but that’s not always how folks create new contacts….

Beginning today WhoPaste 4.4 offers a user configurable hot key for creating a blank contact.
Yeah – a blank contact but one that has all the benefits of WhoPaste’s smart review window and preferences.

Gone are the days of scrambling for a pen to jot that phone number down while you are on the phone.
Fire the ‘blank’ hot key and put the data in a contact record where it should be!
You don’t have to switch applications or log into Google..

This works for Daylite, Address Book, Google, and Entourage; or any combination using ‘multiDB’.

So Monday I’ m releasing version 4.3 – the first version of 2010.

4.3 can handle a lot more dynamic data for Daylite!  Multiple rules can be attached to each of the ‘Extra’ fields – each with directive to include or remove text from the sample.  Date type ‘Extra’ fields are also supported with extraction rules.  You can also create an Opportunity which can have a name which is derived from the data.  Got get those Daylite users to pay more attention.  WhoPaste really kick-starts the Daylite process!

Just in case somebody out there is feeling like only Daylite gets the love – well its not true.  Everybody gets context menu management for the Lexicon.  Pretty slick really – highlight some text – pull up the context menu – let WhoPaste do the rest.  It’ll store the text into your designated lexical category and then re-extract the submission under the updated lexicon.  Works great.

In other news today – WhoPaste makes its debut on YouTube!
It’s Good – It’s WhoPaste

Here comes 2010.  In preparation I’ve honored the various solstice traditions in several ways:  communing with friends and family, eating the customary foods, but most especially the letting go, the purging.

I guess I’m a bit of a pack rat – I’d rather think of it as resource protection – it’s just hard to let go of things which might prove useful…

In any case, I emptied my office and cleaned it thoroughly. In the process I purged old computers, outdated accessories, books, files, etc.. It took nearly 3 full days of effort.  A friend held a fire ceremony on New Year’s Eve and I incinerated a long-standing burden symbolically.  Through the quiet off-hours of these past weeks I’ve also managed to revamp the entire WhoPaste website..

So here we go.  I’ve readied for this ride!

Yeah, Hello Indeed!  This is the first post.  Made it just in time for a 2009 publish date.

Hello 2010!!
