There is a silence in the air... apparently last week was brought to us by the letter I - (iPhone, ILUG). The dust is settling. Twitter is relaxing. Everyone take a deep breath.

Now! Onto the fun stuff. Ed Brill is happy to announce eight new Lotus product Wiki's:

• IBM Composite Applications wiki
  
  
• Lotus Connections Deployment wiki
  
  
• Lotus Notes/Domino wiki
  
  
• Lotus Domino Web Application Development wiki
  
  
• Lotus Quickr wiki
  
  
• Lotus Sametime wiki
  
  
• WebSphere Portlet Factory wiki
  
  
• Lotus Web Content Management wiki

Here's a link to the IBM Lotus Wiki list of the eight, so you can bookmark it directly.

On another new note, Yancy Lent has decided that our community has too many downloads - and has done something about it. He's created a "Downloads" page on Planet Lotus to directly link to downloads on other sites (think tucows, or downloads.com).

Check the downloads page for direct links (tucows-style) to sidebar widgets, product trials, conference session slides and corresponding material, templates, etc. I'd love to see direct links to the top downloads from OpenNTF.org, such as Blogsphere, Ext.nd, or whichever seem to be the most searched for there.

I'd also love to see direct links to all the end-user related applications on OpenNTF. I know I have a few up there. Lots of conversation lately has been how to drive end-user traffic to the Lotus community; this could be a great start.

On a side note, Yancy has also illustrated how it's a great idea to go over your web site's stats and search terms to give your users what they are looking for. According to him, over the past 30 days, the phrase "download" is the most searched-for term on PlanetLotus.org. My guess is that term skyrockets a few weeks after each conference.

Now. Time to dust off my presentations and downloads and get them up there. I have to find them first. To quote Ben Poole, who introduced me to this great phrase, "Gah!"
