Or even cooler approach might be to use and event gateway listener. :) At CFUnited, Jeff Tapper showed a cool demo where he uploaded an mp3 to his server at home. He had an event gateway "listening" to that directory and would act upon changes. When the file was uploaded, it woudl add the file to his mp3 server playlist and send him and IM via AIM telling him the playlest had been updated. (also done with CFMX7 using JBuddy)
