Cf.Objective() Conference 2010
As many of you in the community are already aware, the cf.Objective() conference in Minneapolis is coming, and coming quickly. cf.Objective() is the only Enterprise ColdFusion conference and, really, the only one of its kind. Other CF conferences such as CFUnited are more geared towards an all-encompassing view of ColdFusion--from beginner to expert. cf.Objective(), however, is geared towards seasoned developers and people who are immersed in the technology. That's not to say not everyone is welcome to the conference--far from it--it just means some people will get more out of it than others. See the list of sessions here.
This year, Aaron Wolfe and I will be presenting our topic Saturday, the 23rd "Bulletproof Apps: Architecting for Failure". After being slated to present at CFUnited last year and having to pull out at the last second, we are very excited to actually be heading to Minneapolis. The presentation will be great for anyone looking to build solid ColdFusion applications.
Aaron and I are honored by the opportunity to speak at this prestigious conference alongside industry greats such as Ray Camden, Charlie Arehart, Simon Free, Peter Bell, and so many more. For someone like myself who is not a seasoned presenter or "big name" in the community, it is a little intimidating to be able to have this chance. I am not new to presenting. I have taught several Web development courses at a local community college and present several times a year to our ColdFusion user group, MVCFUG. Being in front of people has become quite a natural and rewarding experience.
I hope those of you reading this who are able to attend do so. Minneapolis is a central location for most of the country, so getting there should not be a problem. For me, I have never been, and am excited to visit somewhere new. April 22-24th looks to be a terrific time.
If you have any questions about me or about our presentation, feel free to contact me.
