Needed: one place for *ALL* OneNote extensibility
"EMRhelp.org" <EMRhelp.org[ at ]gmail.com> 2/20/2007 12:59:51 AM
Descapa's new OneNote 2007 tools here, scattered bits here and there,
and hopefully a plethora of OneNote extensions forthcoming ...... all
made painful because there is no central place for them.

OneNote needs one place.

For the users.

Ideas ? Volunteers ?

I'd be more than happy to host all the addons on my server. I've got
tons of storage and tons of transfer (200 GB and 2,000GB) I bet,
however, that MS has something up their sleeve.

Ben ? Are you thinking of updating your OneNote site for OneNote
2007 ?

MS probably won't host 3rd party hacks/addons.
As well, hosting is one thing, but what i think people want is .....

A one page list of

Name of PowerToy / 50 word short story of what it does /
Author / Local Link to file / Link to Author's site.

Being able to see some reviews might be good as well.

I hope to create a new page for OnPPT that lists them all. I have been
swamped this month: I have done 32 presentations on Office 2007 since the
first of the month. I have 2 more tomorrow and 2 more on Wednesday. Once
those are done, I can get back to real life, including site updates... Watch
for it :)

The static web pages of onppt.com are a less attractive option.

My suggestion is: http://www.onenotepowertoys.com/

That domain is a good one, and should work well. The only problem I
foresee with it is that onenotepowertoys is blog style. What you are
suggesting (and quite frankly, is much needed) is a static page. There
would have to be a redesign of onenotepowertoys.com.

I would love to do it myself, as well, but like Kathy I'm swamped! My
finals are two weeks away. Finals in medical school are just crazy.
So, I could do something two weeks from now.

Here is a question...If we want one single page that will talk about
each of the addons, how would we go about allowing user ratings? Are we
talking about a wiki here? Also, how would the site admin verify that
the addon is a "safe" addon?

These are some thoughts that ran through my brain last night.

Also I can just have a page that I continually update, though I just haven't
had the time to get around to that yet.

I know AdminID from the onenotepowertoys.com site would probably want to
help out.

My suggestions to AdminID is to make it darn clear which PowerToys are
for 2007 and which ones are 2003. Currently his list is too vague in
this regard.
