CF.Objective is almost 3 weeks away and man am I excited!  If you have not attended CF.Objective before, you should be, as it is the premier advanced ColdFusion/Flex/Air conference.  It was been a great delight to participate in this conference and this year promises to be really awesome also.  One thing different about this year is that we have amazing trainings happening before the conference at very awesome prices.  Of course, I will be there teaching CBOX-100 for our 1 day workshop and course.  There are also the following amazing classes:

• Coldbox:100 Training (April 21)
• Building Secure CFML Applications (April 21)
• Developing Applications with ColdFusion 9 Object Relational Mapping (ORM) (April 20-21)
• Getting Started with Flex and AIR Development with the Flex SDK (April 21)
• Mach-II and OOP from the Ground Up (canceled)
• Programmers Guide to Mura CMS (April 21)
• Rapid Development with Model-Glue 3 (April 20-21)

So if you still are undecided, then DECIDE!! Come on over and hang out with us and learn fun stuff!!

Just a reminder that we will be holding a cool CF & Flash Builder Launch Party at the Inland Empire ColdFusion User Group on April 7th at 7pm!

I am glad to inform that I will be presenting at CF.Objective 2010 this year in Minneapolis. Unfortunately, it will be only 1 topic, as my other 2 where not accepted (LogBox: Making Logging in ColdFusion Fun again and Powering iPhone Applications with ColdFusion). Hopefully, next year they will allow more topics.

Not only will I will be presenting, but I will be doing a ColdBox 1 Day training course: CBOX-100. So if you will be attending CF.Objective and need to get some ColdBox Training, you can. So I hope to see you there this April.

I just saw this book review by Henrik Joreteg and wanted to share it:

Coldbox is *the* enterprise ColdFusion framework and toolkit.

I've written several enterprise level ColdFusion apps in ColdBox.

If you're a CF developer, this book is a must have. Buy it.
