I was working (1996, Hijinx.com) on pbitz.com - or was it pbits.com, not sure .. anyway, i was graphics guy who was paid to design UI for sites. Then these crazy kats who i worked with said something about dynamic variables in the HTML.. i said "woah, that's almost as hardcore as that hard language _javascript_ that everyone keeps talking about".
From there, I not only learned CFML ( 1996, i was introduced to it by an ex employee of webraven who apparently got it off of JJ Allaire? - cannot confirm) but i made by debut home owned site "OzMetallica" where it was rumoured that Kirk was photographed once with the site in the background. It had skulls, and castle background with Lighting boltz and stuff - courtessy of Alien filter's "glow" effect.
It was hardcore, it was the days when you'd "ownz" someone in IRC flame wars and then ctcp ping flood them off the servers.
Good times...
Now instead of lookin at porn, i tend to prefer nicely designed innovative flash sites? (where are my morals i tell you!)

When I first started it was in the upgrade of the interflora website from "dbml" (2.0) to "cfml" (3.0). I guess that was about 8 years ago.. I was only 17 back then. Time does fly. Thankfully I've kept my youthful lack of perspective :)Joel-----Original Message-----11 years sure is a long time,

Not sure what went wrong, perhaps Tim decided he wasn't for the
teaching role.
At any rate Tim is back with the ColdFusion team at Adobe - this time
as the senior product marketing manager!
Tim visited Australia about the time of the MX 7 launch and did a great
job at building up interest in the best version of CF yet so... Welcome
back Tim!
PS. As of Saturday(ish) I will have dedicated 11 years to CFML - mainly
the Allaire/Macromedia/Adobe line but also a bit of BlueDragon!
Yes I am feeling old!!!
Cheers!
