CF.Objective 2008 Wrap Up

CF.Objective was great again this year. I learned a lot and met a lot of great people. I learned so much when I went last year that I didn't think I could possibly learn as much this year, but I think I even learned more. The classes were great, but the casual conversations were at least as good.

So many people helped me and I want to give them all a shout-out here. I actually wrote a draft of this entry including that, but it looked like the worst kind of name-dropping.

So I will just say a general thank you for all of the people who took the time to give me advice, show me cool projects, and question my processes. Even if I didn't seem affected at the time, it has all had an impact and I feel like I learned a lot from everyone.

I actually had to skip the last two classes of the conference because I felt like my brain was full and I couldn't learn any more.

It is really exciting to think about all of the ways that I can take advantage of everything that I learned this conference.

I am excited take advantage of everything I learned at this conference and I hope to keep in better touch with the people I talked to at this conference than I did last time. If you talked to me at the conference, I would love to keep in touch, so don't hesitate to drop me a line.

P.S. - Ben Nadel has the best entry to capture the feeling of being at Cf.Objective. I couldn't have said it half as well!

CF.Objective made me a little late on this entry, but it was well worth (more on that later). Even with CF.Objective, this week saw a great selection of essential blog reading.

A Handful of Code

In my last post about page controllers, Jason Holden asked on which pages I use page controllers. This is a great question and speaks to a larger issue of code organization that applies to CSS and JavaScript as well.

CSS Naked Day 2008

I just found out that it is CSS Naked Day, so here is my blog... naked.

CodeCop 1.0.1 Updater 1

I recently updated CodeCop to fix a bug reported by Todd Mathews. If you are running CodeCop in the CF Admin of ColdFusion 8 and you don't want to use the Derby database, then upgrade to this version.

The only file that has been changed is the Application.cfm in the root of CodeCop.

CodeCop is open source and free for any use.

BlogCFC was created by Raymond Camden. This blog is running version 5.8.001.
