For those of you that attended my session, my presentations are coming, I swear! I just found out that my recorded preso did not have any audio so I'm planning on recording another one soon and I'll be sure to add some of the stuff that we didn't have time to cover during the preso.
If you have any questions or comments or anything else you'd like to see, please feel free to post on this entry and I'll get back to you soon.
Cheers...
As promised, here are the slides and code examples for my CF.Objective() 2008 presentation. Feel free to post any comments or questions and I'll get to them asap.
As I mentioned after the presentation, I'm also going to be putting together an intermediate version of this talk covering more complex patterns. Also, I have been told that CF.Objective() 2009 will be tentatively scheduled for May 6-9. So now you have plenty of time to begin schmoozing your bosses to let you go. I have to say that this is THE conference for learning the high level skills needed to build enterprise level applications in ColdFusion.

Just want to pass on the word that Adobe has released a security advisory yesterday for ColdFusion 7 and 8. This resolves an identified vulnerability that could potentially allow session hijacking for applications utilizing CFID or CFTOKEN. This does not apply to applications using J2EE Session management.
More details and how to get your ColdFusion server updated can be found on this link:

Just a quick note for those of you that like me are hooked on "The Glue". Model-Glue that is!
Joe Rinehart has added a nice feature for integrating MG with Flex without having to refactor your controllers into service layers. For more information and detailed explanation on how to take advantage of this new feature checkout the Model-Glue Blog at Model-Glue: New Flex Integration Features.
We at AboutWeb are constantly looking for talented professionals that make a difference!
We are currently seeking a Web Designer with 3+ years experience developing and implementing CSS layouts and working with XHTML that also has an eye for design. Experience with a combination of the following technologies: Dreamweaver, Flash, XML, HTML and JavaScript is helpful as well. Basically, we are looking for this person to help develop the front end for a number of our ongoing projects and work with our other developers, myself included, to make sure everything comes together on the applications we’re building. Some of the work will need to follow 508 compliance regulations so experience along those lines is a plus. This position is full-time in our Rockville headquarters. There may be print work involved as well so any familiarity with logo and graphics would be helpful.
A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Graphic Design or related field is preferred but not required.
For immediate consideration or if you have any questions please contact Jim Archy directly at 301-468-9246 x 103 or email him at jarchy@aboutweb.com.
Glad to see that ColdFusion 8 is getting the publicity it deserves, here are two brief articles that came in the latest SDTimes IT newspaper. While I don't agree with some of the wording, it's still good publicity to our much beloved technology!
ColdFusion 8: First Update in Two Years
There's a very nice article on the front page of SD Times Newspaper mentioning the ColdFusion 8 release. I thought it was worth mentioning it here.
I have been a SD Times subscriber for quite sometime now and it's a great resource on the latest in software development tools and technologies. I highly recommend you check it out and for most of us it's free!
You can read the article here: ColdFusion Heats Up: First update in two years supports latest Java.
