Reason's to attend:
1. If you take your ColdFusion and web development seriously, this is the one event you won't want to miss. Learn what's new, directly from Adobe. Ben Forta calls CFUNITED, now in its 8th year, "the premier CF-specific event."
2. Meet other developers who share your interests. Find people who have already solved that problem that's giving you headaches back at the office; schmooze with speakers late-night at the bar; discuss the future of development. Often putting a face to that email that you've been chatting with on lists is the best part of CFUNITED.
3. Are members of your team new to ColdFusion? Then the CFUNITED bootcamp track will teach them the basics in a few days. From CFOUTPUT to looping, from SQL to database design - they'll learn all this and more from top experts in the field.
4. Flex is hot right now and we have a whole track on Flex, Ajax and Apollo. Learn Flex and pick up advanced techniques for Rich Internet Applications.
5. Meet the engineers from Adobe who create ColdFusion, ask them questions, and give them your 2 cents on what you'd like to see in the future.
6. See the latest tools for web development. We are expecting several new releases at CFUNITED, so visit our expo area and be prepared to have your socks blown off!
7. The After Party. Let your hair down, play games with your buddies, or challenge famous speakers to a game of pool. You might even have a technical conversation or two between the beers!
8. A year of info packed into 4 days! If you are hungry for technical information or want to ask questions, this is the place for you! We have regular sessions, long sessions and - if that is not enough - Birds-of-a-Feather evening sessions that go long into the night! Basic CF, Advanced CF, Better SQL, XML, CSS, Accessibility, Usability, Fusebox, security, PDFs, SMS, CFCs, OO, RSS, UDFs,debugging, arrays, structures, caching, web services, testing, charting, Flex, Ajax, Apollo, ColdSpring, Prototyping, MVC, CFEclipse, Spry, Design patterns, project management, and more.
9. Want to get your hands dirty? Attend our hands-on pre-conference classes taught by top speakers. Bring your own laptop, and code along with the pros!
10. Bags, t-shirts and goodies galore. Printed slides for every talk, so you don't have to print them out yourself. Plus online access to presentations, code samples and audio of any sessions you may have missed.
