That's right I said it. Web 2.0. Yup, said it again. OK, so I am sure many of you can remember back to the great days of getting data out of a database, letting a designer make it pretty and having a VC throw lots of money at the company.
While those times were great and I had a lot of fun listening to everyone's plans to rule the world, I also remember how easy it became to give it to them with Coldfusion. Prior to Coldfusion I was writing primarily ASP sites doing the heavy lifting with Visual Basic and Transaction Server and it would take time, third party plug-ins and did I mention time. Coldfusion

Over the last few days I have read my fair share of articles and blogs that pertain to motivation and "doers"...
The most pointed one was from Jeff Atwood about moving to the realm of pundit from programmer, but he referenced Glengarry Glen Ross and I watched the video. ABC, Always Be Closing...Very fitting for a sales rep. Reminds me of the also famous scenes from Wall Street and Boiler Room. I even thought of the scene in Antitrust where Tim Robbins speaks to the developers (makes me want to code every time).

Unbelievable. iSafari (my name for Safari on the iPhone) does not work with BlogCFC. Now, I am going to make a great assumption here and say that it is because of Ray's implementation of Spry and that it is Spry that is causing this problem.
But until I get a chance to figure out if this is indeed the case and can find a work around don't try post articles to blogCFC from your iPhone in the Houston Airport when you plane has been struck by lightning and is being checked for air worthiness.
