BlueDragon Blog
Here you'll find tips and information about making the most of BlueDragon, which offers several compelling implementation alternatives for your CFML applications. This blog was created originally by Charlie Arehart, who was New Atlanta CTO from 2003-2006.,He has since moved on to become an independent consultant but continues to answer comments raised in existing blog entries. BlueDragon continues, and you should look to the newer BlueDragon blog, from New Atlanta president, Vince Bonfanti, for more updated information.

I mentioned last week that I was doing a free 2-part webcast as part of a series for Microsoft. Part 1 was today and went very well (nearly 100 attendees. I don't have the URL for the recording but I will offer it as soon as I can.)

Part 2 will be Thursday, and will focus on integration of CFML and ASP.NET. Come sign up and see for yourself. Click the image below to be taken to the MS site for all the integration webcasts.

 ASP.NET 2.0 Webcast Series

You will see sections for CFML, PHP, and JSP developers. And within the section for CFML developers, you will see other topics introducing .NET generically to CFML developers (including a 3-part talk given by David Churvis).

Our talk will instead be specifically about integration of CFML and .NET using BlueDragon.NET, which of course should be very interesting to any CFML developer. Let me clarify something also: the focus of most of the webcasts in that series (like the ones on PHP and JSP) are more about transitioning you from the one language to .NET. Ours, rather, is more about taking advantage of the .NET framework, ASP.NET, and .NET objects from within your CFML. Not about moving from CFML to .NET, it's about making the most of .NET and ASP.NET with and from your CFML, getting the best of both worlds.

If you're a CF developer who's facing a corporate move to .NET, you don't need to throw away your CFML, nor your experience with it. You can also learn .NET at a much more reasonable pace using BlueDragon.NET. Come learn how.
