<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">In this issue we take a QUICK TOUR of the "sospep" web application suite by exploring one of the sospep "DAPPS" that I have created named "my-BC". I like to share this "DAPP" with my friends and family who are (or are planning) to visit my home province of British Columbia(BC), Canada. I hope that that this enables them to choose the "Locations, Events, ..." in BC that are of most interest to them during their stay here and ... I also encourage them to ... SHARE/ADD/EDIT ... their thoughts/ideas/opinons and their Locations/Events/ ... to make the "my_BC" DAPP even better.</p>

<h2 style="font-size: 19px; color: #888877; font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman', serif; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-weight: normal; text-

<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;"><a href="http://sospep.com/view/article?id=416#tabs-2">sospep</a> - is a suite of <em>web based applications</em> for Personal Information Management(PIM).</p>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">The sospep suite consists of 6 core component applications, that provide you with a foundation to build upon and is easily extensible with additional optional components to provide the specific enhanced functionality that you need.</p>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">The primary goals of sospep are TRI - FOLD. To make it incredibly easy to ...</p>
<ol><!--

<li>] Use the the sospep core component applications to create, gather, organize and structure "your data" in a manner that is most effective for you.</li>
<li>] to SHARE/publish/distribute/ that data with "your people" desire in the way that works best for you (EMAIL, WEB PAGE, SMS, social, PRINT ) that best meets your needs and ...</li>

<p class="caption" style="font-style: italic; line-height: 1.0em; font-size: 10px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;"><a style="text-decoration: none; color: #5b8c48;" href="/" target="_new"><img style="padding-top: 5px; padding-

transform: lowercase;">so, what's this DAPP, APP and COMPONENT stuff?</h2>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">A "DAPP" (short for Data Application) is just a collection of related data. DAPPS are easy to create, publish(share) and use. You can use pre-defined DAPPS that have already been created to quickly structure your ARTICLES/ITEMS/STEPS/PEOPLE/TASKS and LOCATIONS into existing containers OR you can define and create your own DAPPS in exactly the manner that is most logical to you.</p>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">An "APP" is an additional "optional component" that "you choose" to add to "your sospep" to provide additional specific functionality. An example of an app is the "money" app. The money app enables you to track the expenses associated with the any/all of your sospep dapps. Anyone can easily add existing apps to your sospep in a few clicks, you can even create your own specific custom apps (if you know a little javasript)</p>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">A CORE COMPONENT is one of the 6 core "applications" that currently make up the sospep pims suite.Everyone has the same core components in their sospep, you can then choose or create the OPTIONAL apps and dapps that you want ... to customize "your sospep" to meet your specific Personal Information Management(PIM) requirements.</p>
<p>So let's get started on that tour of the "my bc" DAPP by clicking the "PLACES" app icon from the sospep home page, here you will find a collection of public ATLASES, click on the ATLAS named "Canada" and then click on the MAP named "BC". <!--

Here you will find a list of some of my favorite "locations" in the various SECTORS of my BC map. 
Places is a locations management tool that enables you to collect and manage "your atlases" of "your locations" and then leverage that data across all of your sospep applications

<h2 style="font-size: 19px; color: #888877; font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman', serif; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-weight: normal; textransform: lowercase;">PLACES - atlas, maps and sectors ...</h2>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;"><!--
		
<strike>so they are just categories then?</strike>

Well, essentially yes. basically they are "categories" to organize your "locations". The places app is really about your "locations", which we will talk about in just a minute.

-->The screenshot above is of the collection of "Atlases" contained in the sospep named "public". I choose to make this dapp/map PUBLIC so that i can share it with everyone. By default, all of your sospep data is PRIVATE to you only. You choose to share which of your data that you want to share, with which of your PEOPLE that you want to share it with.</p>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">Below is a screenshot of the collection of the "Maps" currently contained in the Atlas that I created named "my B.C." Each of the sospep core component applications work in a consistent fashion, to organize your data in a manner that is consistent with the real world counterpart. The "Places" component uses "Atlases" to contains Maps, "Maps" contain Sectors and Sectors that contain "locations".</p>
<p class="caption" style="font-style: italic; line-height: 1.0em; font-size: 10px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;"><a style="text-decoration: none; color: #5b8c48;" href="http://sospep.com/view/article?id=527" target="_blank"><img style="border-style: none; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; margin-

right: 0; margin-left: 0;" src="http://sospep.com/images/scr-1-view-sectors.jpg" alt="[ screenshot - 2 - view - MAPS (my-BC) ]" width="600" height="400" border="0" /> <br />...more details on art 3 - creating sospep places - Sectors </a></p>

<h2 style="font-size: 19px; color: #888877; font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman', serif; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-weight: normal; textransform: lowercase;">A SECTOR contains - YOUR LOCATIONS</h2>
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">So now that we've arrived at the view Locations page which displays the contents of a given Map Sector. The "view locations" toolbar offers many options to work with multiple 'locations' records in a single operation. You can MOVE, COPY, DELETE or even EDIT multipe records in one operation. You can also PRINT, EMAIL or SMS your locations. One of the options that I really like here is the COMBINE records option that enables you too select a subset of any of the current sectors Locations and work with multiple records together.</p>
<!--

By choosing to make these particular LOCATIONS publicly available, I can share them with everyone. By default your sospep PLACES data (just like all of "your sospep data") is

"private" to you only! You can choose to make the PLACES (and other sospep data) public, <strong>if you choose to do so.</strong> You can even configure your sospep to share just "specific PLACES"

with just the "specific PEOPLE" that you choose (for example, just "your friends" or just "your family")

</p>

Another HANDY feature about any of the existing public PLACES is that you can quickly and easily ADD public ATLASES/MAPS/SECTORS or even just specific LOCATIONS to your own ATLASES in just

a few clicks ... enabling you to modify/customize or organize them in a manner that best suits your requirements.

<!-- 008 CLOSING  - coming soon,  ****************************************************************

As with all of the sospep applications places has been designed to work seamlessly with each of the other sospep component applications to further extend and leverage its functionality </p>

<p> Another one of the reasons I have for making them public is my hope that 1 day - you, your spouse, your children or maybe even your visiting guests may know of ANOTHER COOL [chilliwack]

location (like this <a href="http://jalopnik.com/5684329/how-to-see-new-yorks-secret-city-hall-subway-stop" target="_blank">neat new location</a> that "I" just discovered and added to my [NYC] locations list)

<p> Hopefully you will then add that HIDDEN GEM of a location to the public locations book and I too can discover and experience it as well. <br/>
... or perhaps even just add a ] tip, ] suggestion or some other ] pertinent detail to one of the existing locations.  
</p>

-->
<p style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 1em;">In addition to the features described above sospep has many additional features that provide even more functionality. In the comings months our newsletter we will take a look at what you can do when you combine the data from one of your sospep apps (ex "sospep places") with the data from another of your apps ( "sospep people" ) application data to create a "really suite" address book that has some pretty nifty functionality</p>
