In my first cuts of Model-Glue: Flex, I wrote a bit of helper called an Autoproxy that let you call a service from a controller, passing along a reference to Result and Fault callback functions. It was simple, familiar, and did away with manually dealing with AsyncToken and the like.

I'm having lunch with Paul Kenney, and he just showed me MacSaber. Too much fun: it uses the motion sensor in a MacBook Pro to emulate the sound of a light saber in use. Turn it on, get the sound of a lightsaber turning on. Swing your laptop and get increased hum. Stop it fast, listen to sparks fly.
Granted, you feel like a geek swinging your lightsab...laptop around in the middle of a hotel restaurant...

Earlier today I asked Liz at Teratech if there was going to be a frameworks BOF at this year's CFUnited.
She replied that it's now scheduled for 9PM Wednesday night, location to be determined. I'll be showing Model-Glue 2.0 and Model-Glue:Flex, and I'd like to welcome anyone who either authors a framework to demo a bit of what they're up to, and I'd especially like invite anyone who uses ColdFusion to speak a bit about their experiences. Please comment if you'd like to be involved!

Teratech's always done a great job with their social networking events at both the CFUnited and Frameworks conferences.
This, though, they're going all out: the big social event is at the National Zoo! When you hear about this year's frameworks argument and that someone got "fed to the lions," it's going to take on an entirely new meaning...

Johann's a developer I've had the pleasure of working with on a few projects, and I was excited today when he IM'd to say he'd started blogging at http://www.justanaverageyo.com/.
Only 3 posts, and he's already helped me out with an Apache issue I had on a Windows XP development box I just built!
