ColdFusion 8 Adobe Tag Posters are here!

We've been working with Adobe on releasing a CF8 Tag Poster. The CFUnited Team along with TeraTech's development team spent the last 6 months to put together this fresh new poster.

The plan is that Adobe will send a number of copies to user groups. More details about when these will be delivered will come from Rachel Luxemburg shortly.

The CFUnited team has received copies and will be distributing them during CFUnited Express and other sponsored events. More details soon about which cities we will be visiting next! Including CFUnderground in San Francisco CA November 16th. We are doing a call for speakers now! Email liz@cfunited.com to apply. Website for this event will be released soon.

Liz Frederick's Gravatar I hear everyone. You want a poster. I'll put together a quick form and if you fill it out I'll send one to you for free! Maybe more depending on the size of your company so your co-workers can get one as well. Don't forget, your local user group will be receiving some too.

Tim Rubel's Gravatar Liz, I saw your comment about creating a form. How can I get one of these posters for my office?

Kristen Schofield's Gravatar Hi all, I think the form Liz refers to is the one we are setting up on adobe.com. It should be up in the next few weeks. At which point you will be able to register to get one for free. There's a limited amount though so if you already received one (e.g. from the user groups) please leave some for others. :) Details soon..

Niall's Gravatar Hi Kristen - thanks for the update!

Liz's Gravatar Well actually we have our own supply too. I wasn't aware Adobe had a survey.
They have been sending them to user groups. We created a survey http://cfunited.com/blog/index.cfm/2008/9/4/Get-yo...
It is good information for us to get to know more about the community's needs.
We send you the poster for free once we get the completed form. Thanks everyone!

Flex programmers's Gravatar Great post.

I share your frustration with the lack of marketing of ColdFusion by Adobe. I want ColdFusion to be the Number 1 Web Programming Language.

However, Flex is positioned and promoted by Adobe to work with many web programming languages (Java, C#, PHP, Ruby) as the backend. What I would like Adobe to do more of (besides better promote/advertise CF) is to also promote CF as the backend web programming language of choice due to the built-in Flex-CF advantages.

My concern is not that Adobe will abandon CF, but rather that CF's market share will actually suffer due to "Web 2.0" technologies like Flex and AJAX providing a new "face" to websites developed in Java, PHP, and C#. There are Ruby-AJAX, Ruby-FLEX, Java-AJAX and Java-FLEX Frameworks out or coming out that significantly reduce CF's claim as a rapid development web programming language.

I want a cool CF ad during the next Super Bowl!
