I have four types of objects in my model: Service Objects Gateway Objects Business Objects Utility Objects Note that these names are not necessarily the generally accepted or "proper" names for these types of objects in the Object Oriented community. These are terms that I have chosen to use, and I will define what I mean by them. 24 Jun 23:19 The Adobe ColdFusion 8 Developer Exam arrived earlier this year and it is about time I took it. But like Ben Nadel, the exam scares me! Why? Because there is so much more to know. With the introduction of new AJAX tags, native JSON support, .NET integration, image manipulation, threading, interfaces, not to mention full PDF integration, the presentation builder and across the board enhancements, there are a lot of new things to know. 24 Jun 21:25 The fourth episode of the CFConversations podcast, the last of the three episodes recorded at CFUnited, was released early this morning. This episode focuses on some ideas that came out of Brian Meloche's conference session on promoting the use of CFML outside of the ColdFusion community.

If you managed to snap me (either in the Crime and Punishment museum or showing off tattoos in the sponsor corral) let me know! 24 Jun 16:31 Recorded at the end of Day 3 of CFUnited. On this podcast: Brian Meloche Rick Mason John Farrar Dana Tierney Ken Auenson Chris Hough Seth Bienek Timothy Farrar Adam Tuttle Adam Haskell Most of this episode focuses around the ideas that came out of the Promoting CFML Outside of the CFML Community session Friday evening, mentioned in the previous post.
