What is Domino / Lotus Notes ?
Domino is a new tool. It is not a simple email system. Nor is it a traditional database. The Domino product is an integrated messaging and Web application software platform.It provides a robust environment for creating Web applications that support workflow, RBDMS connectivity, and collaboration. Domino comes with some pre-written functionality. It contains a mail file to handle all your incoming and outgoing email, calendar/scheduling, task tracking, etc.There is an address book to store individual and group information (and much much more !). However, to get the best return on your investment, Domino should be thought of as an integrated development platform for creating Groupware / Workflow applications.
