I really believe that the oncoming global economic slowdown is the perfect opportunity to show your organization how Notes/Domino can help your organization do more with less. I've been compiling a list and in the coming days will touch on some things that can contribute to keeping your company in the black and out of the red.Has your boss approached you about the value of Notes/Domino to your organization? Better yet, have you approached your boss about how Notes/Domino can help your organization save money and boost productivity?
If either of the above are true, I'd love to talk to you about putting a plan in action to make the most of your Notes/Domino investment.

What Notes/Domino can do to help your company in an economic slowdown
I posted the following on the Lotus Software Professionals discussion group over at LinkedIn

One of the easiest demonstrations of Notes' value comes from rolling out useful applications. To this end, I just compiled a list of the "Best Notes Templates for Newbies" here: http://www.lotusguru.com/lotusguru/LGBlog.nsf/d6plinks/20081015-7KFMC6
I also blogged last year (http://www.lotusguru.com/lotusguru/LGBlog.nsf/SearchResults?OpenNavigator&Query=economic) about how I foresaw big opportunities to make the case for Notes' value because of economic belt-tightening.
Seems I'm not the only one to see things that way :-).
Mike,
Haven't got to reply entirely on Linkedin yet. Will do in a few minutes.
What do you have in mind?
Presumably apps are the way, but unl;ess the company has internal developers its always a hard sell.
You can show ROI and all but something that good takes time etc..
I see the future for my team and have shared it with a few people to flesh it out so I am interested in other views as well.
@lotus evangelist With an existing investment in Notes, an organization can deploy templates, OpenNTF applications, or hire a developer from a small shop to to do a custom application. All of these can be relatively inexpensive and could yield some nice productivity improvements.
@kevin pettitt I'm with you on the deployment of templates. I wasn't stepping into the Notes vs. Exchange debate, though...
