What would you like it to do?

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 21st, 2001, 06:29 AM

Well, once again I'm turning to the VBForums for help!

I've recently started work on a Communications Centre Application, and I'm looking for people to give feedback on what they feel it should include. I'll also be looking for Beta Testers at a later date, so now's your chance to sign up!

What it can do so far, or will do soon:

Send SMS Messages to any UK Mobile Phone
Send a FAX
Send / Receive Email
Manage an address book, which will be linked into the other services
Allow the user to chat over a LAN

If you can think of any other features you'd like to see included, then post them here! Also, can anyone tell me if any file extensions beginning with "ph" (apart from .php) are in use by any major applications?

Thanks!!!

**PJB** · Apr 21st, 2001, 07:07 AM

This may go along with the address book, but some kind of appointment scheduling would be nice

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 21st, 2001, 07:14 AM

Nice idea! Thanks

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:31 AM

Anyone else?

**Ianpbaker** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:36 AM

a nearest pub locator would be handy

**Arbiter** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:42 AM

Ian,

You just can't leave any thread alone can you?

Cyber,

Don't listen to him, he's clearly insane. On the subject of your app - an automatic hedgehog renovator would be quite nice....

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:46 AM

Aha! Cool ideas! Any idea where I can find details on the Hedgehog interface via the Serial Port?

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:48 AM

The Hedgehog wouldn't fit in a serial port not enough holes for all the pins!!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:52 AM

Oops! Where can I find a serial - hedgehog adaptor?

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:53 AM

How about a multiphasic tachion converter.... It makes Ice cubes!

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:55 AM

Look in that it is made by Fox or Car... I think that it is also known as the "Road-Kill" adapter!

**Arbiter** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:55 AM

You'd probably be better of using an IR comms port to communicate with hedgehogs. Less risk of injury.

I'd have to be fairly flexible 'cos the little bleeders run around everwhere!!!

**Ianpbaker** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 03:55 AM

cyber - www.roadKill.co.uk/accessories normally stock them

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 04:05 AM

Spiffy! I'll implement that Tachion convertor too!

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 04:25 AM

I now know I'm gonig to be sick!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 04:31 AM

Mwahahaha!

Anyone have any realistic suggestions? Also, any help on the file extension thing mentioned in the first post?

**Beacon** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 04:44 AM

Reminder thing to go with the appointment thingy!

Now that sounds technical!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 04:46 AM

Aii, work in progress!!

**Beacon** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 04:57 AM

It really easy!!
Just gotta make the thingy that controls the appoinment thingy to show a pop up thingy!

Piece of cake!

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 04:59 AM

You should add a wotsit to help the thingy interact with the other thingy!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:00 AM

Ah, but you forgot the doodah which interacts with the thingummy to allow the other bit to do that thingy..

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:03 AM

But I thought that you said that the hoojemaflip is connected to the thingummy! So that the doodah can interact with the wotsit and subsequently make the thingy do what it is meant to do!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:07 AM

Nah! The flippityflop connects to the hoojemaflip which interacts with the wotsit which allows the thingummy to process the results of the thingy which is powered by the flimflam!

**megahack** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:08 AM

I has already made one of these and it rocks, it's gonna be so good

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:12 AM

A flippityflop, or a messaging application?

denniswrenn · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:23 AM

I don't know about him, but I made an awesome flippityflop!

**Arbiter** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:30 AM

You're obviously forgetting the double-flange grommit toggle (part of a wonkle engine) - these are essential !

Ian,

We've ruined this thread haven't we? Takes me back to the good old days.....

What ever you do in your own time is none of our Business Dennis!

My god you are sounding like old men in a pub drinking Stout!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:39 AM

hehe!

I made a cool wonkle engine once, it had an integrated flimflam protocol analyser!!

It isn't? That's quite a surprise...

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:48 AM

You know that you shouldn't rely on a flimflam protocol analyser when working with a wonkle engine!! Its too unstable you want to use Hamster power... Loads of wheels with Hamsters in!

Well I'm not your mother!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:49 AM

Yeah, I discovered that when the wonkle engine overturned and crashed the plopsicle wangdoodle!

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:54 AM

Well that's just asking for trouble!!! using a wonkle engine with a plopsicle wangdoodle! You should have used Greecian 2000 on it... Its a bit slow and its completely black and white!

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 05:56 AM

Ah, but I was also using a swingflobber, which interfaced with the plopsicle wangdoodle and isn't compatible with Grecian 2000!

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 06:25 AM

You are using a swingflobber with Grecian 2000... Well I didn't know that.

Maybe you should use Rod-Hull 2.0 with Emu-file 4.2.. Or use BobbyDavro OS 6.4

**CyberSurfer** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 06:27 AM

I've decided to switch to PamelaLeeOS 9 anyway...It's a bit over inflated, but essentially sound...Very streamlined in places!!!

**chrismitchell** · Apr 23rd, 2001, 06:32 AM

But PamalaLeeOS 9 has a major problem from 2 viruses..

1. TommyLee virus.. ****s it all up and destroys everything!

and

2. The Baywatch Virus.. Your machine just runs in Slow motion and becomes thick as Pig ****!
