A few interesting and somewhat related blog posts:
Simeon Bateman blogs on Mozilla Europe’s founder, Tristan Nitot’s recents comments about possibly both Adobe and Microsoft having an ‘agenda’ with Flash and Silverlight.
But we also know now that Adobe recently announced they were open sourcing FLV and Rich Tretola wondered where was Apple in the list of [...]

Survey admin says: Total Number of Survey Results ~ 300
Hopefully there are more than 300 ColdFusion developers out there…
If you haven’t taken it yet - please consider taking a few moments [...]
I thought this was an interesting read: We Don’t Use Software That Costs Money Here from Coding Horror.
It won’t be easy for commercial software or subscription websites. If past history is any indication, beating the free alternatives is going to get progressively more difficult every year.
Thought it was very relevant with all the discussion [...]
I saw this post on Mike Henke’s blog… ColdFusion is dead (yet again) and of course I had to go read it. Mike’s take was it was just another “CF is dead” rant. But I clicked through and read the original post The State Of ColdFusion and have to agree with many of [...]
Ray Camden kindly gave me access so I could setup a survey using his Soundings Survey application (it rocks!).

Once we collect some data I’ll publish the results on [...]
