Recently I have upgraded my Office to Office 2010. This version looks very interesting and I really like its look, that is especially related to mail. I liked it so much that I have decided to switch my default mail client (The Bat!). Especially I liked the instant search panel, that showed all linked messages.
After my laptop got stuck, I had to reset it. After that no related mail information was shown. I started looking for the fix and it came from Microsoft Website. After I run Scanpst.exe, there were some errors found and search data started showing again. I would also recommend this tool if you have any problems with your PST file.

Just found one useful function and would kike to share it. If you often use strpos, you might find this useful.
// strpos that takes an array of values to match against a string
// note the stupid argument order (to match strpos)
function strpos_arr($haystack, $needle) {
if(!is_array($needle)) $needle = array($needle);
foreach($needle as $what) {
if(($pos = strpos($haystack, $what))!==false) return $pos;
}
return false;
}
?>
This function will be useful if you need to find whether ANY element of array is presented in the source string. Else you have to either modify it, or create another one.

Since I am a real fan of efficiency, I would like to share a good link. All the most known getting things done (GTD) tools are in one place. Here you can find them. I have never seen a more complete list with detailed descriptions. Most of them are not so well known, but are really interesting.
If you know any more resources, related to Getting things done methodology, please, share them in comments.
Recently I have performed the cleanup on my laptop. This means I have deleted the software I don’t use or I am not sure what it’s for. After that my Ultraiso started failing when I tried to burn a DVD. Error message was “Dvd-r/Rw Media Requires Setting Mode Page To Use DAO Writing”. I have tried to change some settings without any success.
Since some programs were deleted, I tried to find which one was necessary for UltraISO. Strange thing, but it was Intel Matrix Storage Manager. I have never used it and not sure what’s it for, but it was necessary for UltraISO for burning a DVD. So, if you have such an error, you should check whether you have all drivers installed. Especially this is related to storage controllers, raid controller drivers and so on. This could be essential for you if you need to burn a DVD with UltraISO
