ColdFusion Job with AboutWeb

AboutWeb is currently hiring Jr-Mid level ColdFusion developers in the Baltimore area for an immediate need. If you would like to build your skillset with web technologies, here is an awesome opportunity! The right developers will have roughly 2 years experience with ColdFusion (or 1+ in ColdFusion MX) and exposure to CFCs and custom tags. If you are interested in joining the AboutWeb team and working with Nic Tunney, send him your resume.

We are also looking for senior J2EE and CF developers in both the DC and Baltimore metro areas.

Max Keynote and Sneak Peak

There are some really cool technologies coming out from Adobe soon. There were some really nice things on the design side like the ability to turn Photoshop layers into Flex applications with Thermo and a demo of a future Flash capability where you apply joint connectors to images and animating them. However, being a developer I was more interested code centric topics. CoCoMo really impressed me. They broke the functionality of Adobe Connect down into individual Flex components so that you can imbed them into any Flex application. You can only include the options you want such as video stream, voice chat, text chat, and the shared white board.

An alpha version of Flex Builder for Linux is now available on labs. I’m sure Nic will be thrilled. He was just complaining about how he had to put Windows back on his desktop because he couldn't run things like Flex Builder.

Going to Max

I'm cutting it close to the wire, but I just found out I will be going to Max. Hope to see the one person who subscribes to my Blog there. :-)

AboutCast

AboutWeb has started a podcast called AboutCast (http://podcast.aboutweb.com/).

The first podcast was done from CFUnited and features Scott Stroz talking about FLOGR and me talking about my Spry presentation.

My Site

I finally got around to setting my site back up. I took it down 8 years ago because I felt it was getting a bit dated and never seemed to find the time to redo it. Hopefully this site and blog will turn out to be useful, at least from a technical point of view. I intend to post technical issue and code that I'm working on.

In case you are interested I have a copy of my old site up at http://www.kellyjo.com/public_html/index.html.

Dont' laugh, it was a decent site back in 97. There are a few interesting Java Applets with source code. Some of the links no longer work, but 8 years is several generations in Web time and some sites have long since faded from the Web. I'm going to update the links I can or see if I have copies of the original material to put online.
