Wow, who'd would think the companies listed below would have a clue about technology?
Bank of America - No wonder my money disappears when they use such a technology that didn't make it! AT&T Wireless - #1 wireless provider, can't be true if their using ColdFusion can it? Casio USA - They couldn't build a watch if they tried! DHL - No wonder why their always late!!! Mayo Clinic - Yeah, they aren't innovative are they? Symantec - Of course, they have no idea what "tech" even means. The US Senate - I guess the government doesn't know what they're doing either... (Some may actually agree, lol) Siemens - For crying out loud, what are they thinking about using that technology, geez. Sprint - Aren't they a little behind the times using that thing called "Cold [space] Fusion" US Bank - Can't trust them with our money if they aren't going to use the best technology United States Olympic Committee - That'll be the last time I watch the Olympics! And last but not least, the NSA for crying out loud? It must be pretty scary to see them use CF huh? What a small list of big companies, and that's just off of Adobe's website (with the exception of the NSA). - Doug DISCLAIMER: This is really a [EMAIL PROTECTED] email, for all those that couldn't tell. The editor of this article clearly doesn't know what he's talking about, and is still living in the 70's if they think ColdFusion hasn't made it. And, I agree we shouldn't stir anything with the editor directly as that's what their looking for, it's a publicity stunt from someone who's probably die-hard on a single platform/technology that bottlenecks them and therefore they are jealous! I think most people in the CF Community are open to more than just CF, whereas other communities, they limit themselves only to one, because they don't know better. -----Original Message----- From: Peterson, Chris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 12:14 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Yet another article about how 'coldfusion never took off' Sheesh, they are comparing Coldfusion to the likes of ALGOL and something called 'Befunge'. Where do these editors come from? >From the article: Given its ease of use and its position as a transitionary language from HTML, it is rather surprising that ColdFusion's popularity has waned so quickly. The ColdFusion killer wasn't due to a failure in marketing the programming language, nor due to any particular language design flaw. Instead, ColdFusion has been slowly displaced by ASP.NET and PHP, which offered a MySQL integrated product in a free open-source form. http://www.softwaredeveloper.com/features/ghosts-in-machine-071207/ Chris Peterson Gainey IT Adobe Certified Advanced Coldfusion Developer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| CF 8 â Scorpio beta now available, easily build great internet experiences â Try it now on Labs http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs_adobecf8_beta Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-OT/message.cfm/messageid:461 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-OT/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.29
