IBM Employee Directory

by Volker Weber

I was bothering Ed about an IBM e-mail address. Well, Ed is still asleep at this time (minus 7 hours). So I asked Mitch, wo lives in Germany.

He did not only give me a fish. He also told me how to fish. So this problem is solved now once and for all. Presenting the IBM Employee directory. The server sets a cookie named __empdir__ for the ibm.com domain. If you remove this cookie you can ask more than five queries per day. :-)

Das Verzeichnis ist auch in Deutsch erhältlich. Umlaute ausschreiben, also Hans Mueller statt Hans Müller.

There is a way for IBMers to "opt out" of being listed in the directory.... some of us have done this in the hope that it will cut down on spam or prospecting (unsolicited) sales calls. I don't know whether it is better to be listed and put up with it or not...for me, personally, anyone who needs to reach me can certainly find me :)

Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten

Ihre Firma hat das Tageslimit an Serveranfragen überschritten.

Weitere Anfragen werden ab Mitternacht (Ortszeit) akzeptiert. (Die aktuelle Ortszeit ist 9:36:35 AM)

Tja, zuviele Anfragen über den selben Proxy würde ich da mal vermuten.

Genau so isses. Das cookie ist total unwichtig, da es vor automatischen anfragen eh nicht helfen würde.

redirects you to the same page.
The data I think(?) is pulled from the Employee directory called Bluepages.
Nifty app.

Shall I remember this for you?




Use your full name and a working email address. Unless you want your comment to be removed. No kidding.
