This week I have been speaking a lot about Flash Remoting in public. Everyone liked this functionality to connect between Macromedia Flash and a web application server. Yes, you read it correct… “a” web application server because Flash Remoting is not something unique for ColdFusion MX and JRun 4.
It’s not? No, we recently announced Macromedia […]

Peter Kassenaar, speaker at the Dutch Go Dynamic Event, has put a page on his website dedicated to his presentation “Flash Usability“. Here can can download his presentation and find lots of links related to this topic. Defenitely worth a visit!

I had some questions from people who visited the seminars. They all want to know where to find ColdFusion hosts. I will work on getting this list up at the localized page very soon. For the time being check out Ben Forta his huge list of CF ISPs from all over the world!

Sean Corfield posted some more information (provided by Ben Forta) on the CFMX updater which had already been silently announced by Vernon Viehe.

Macromedia today released new versions of the ColdFusion server. To be more specific: ColdFusion for IBM WebSphere, ColdFusion for Sun One and ColdFusion for JRun are all now available. I’ll try to post links to in depth articles later today if there are any.
