* New podcast released - Nate Nelson - Beyond Basic SQL for CF
This presentation skips past the basics of using SQL with ColdFusion and
dives right in to more
intermediate and advanced topics. It covers the many features, options,
and practices available to
developers besides just using basic queries. Discover there is much more
to using a database with
ColdFusion than simply storing and accessing data.

Thanks CFUNITED attendee Christian Ready for making the podcasts!
* CFUnited Express Atlanta Review and Photos!
http://www.cacfug.org/a/archives/2007.cfm
Marty Ladner recently posted a review of CFUnited Express and shared his
experience with his user group.
"I had experienced the drip-drip-drip of more and more information about
CFUnited for some time, and
the inability to attend had been chafing. When I learned that there
would be a mini version close
enough to drive to, I decided to go on my own dime.... The morning of
the event, I woke up early
like a kid expecting presents. ... Would I go again? Definitely. "

* Interview with Simon Horwith on "Success From The Trenches - Building
Better Applications"
by Clark Valberg. First published in Fusion Authority at
http://www.fusionauthority.com/Community/4673-Simon-Horwith-on-Success-From-The-Trenches-Building-Better-Applications.htm
Today I sat down with Simon Horwith (http://www.horwith.com/) to discuss
his upcoming talk at
CFUNITED. Simon is the CIO of AboutWeb, editor of ColdFusion Developer's
Journal, an Adobe Certified
Master Instructor, a Flex developer, a consultant to some of the largest
ColdFusion-using
organizations in the world, and if all that's not enough, he's also
quite the globe trotter.
Clark Valberg: So I wanted to chat with you a bit about your upcoming
CFUNITED presentation,
"Success from the Trenches - Building Better Applications".
Simon Horwith: Sure, what would you like to know?
CV: Is it true you've been building ColdFusion applications for 11+
years now?
SH: Yes, sir, since version 1.5!
CV: That's a long time to be in the game, man. You have to have seen
quite a bit in your time.
SH: It is true. I began with the old IBM midrange machines (System
36/38 and AS/400s) and got into
Java when it came out. From there I began with web development and
started using ColdFusion when it
was released (it was much nicer than Live Wire).
CV: Tell us a bit about your first "big" project.
.... continued at Fusion Authority where you can read about Simon's views
on scaling, the four
things not to do in your code and enterprise CF apps
