The online ColdFusion / CFML community website

Newbie!

I was just told lately (a week ago) that the developers edition of ColdFusion was free... I downloaded it, implemented it, and have been in awe ever since. HTML was cool, PHP amazing, CF ridiculously uber amazing. The fact that you can create your own images and name them... then email them... then create a pdf on one thread and load the page/progress while doing so, all while querying a database for some other crap, and the user not thinking your site is slow and a POS.

I do small low budget sites for now, but I am moving up and may start working for a large developer here in my city. I had no idea how powerful CF really was. The .net integration and C++ applications blew my mind. I'm far from doing anything with those, but what little i know about C languages, it seems endless.

Well, just a brief intro.
