cfObjective 2009 Review

Well cfObjective has come and gone and I thought I would take a few minutes today to reflect on my first trip this conference. As always the best part of these conferences is really the networking. I got to see a bunch of people I have not seen in awhile (or ever) that I talk to on a daily basis. My session, Advanced Ajax in ColdFusion was Thursday right after lunch. A friend noticed and gave me the heads up that I was in the big room. This did not help an already nervous first time speaker. In the end I thought my presentation went well and I learned some things that will help me next time.

On Friday night we had our iPhone development BOF that was put on by Andy Matthews, Joshua Cyr and myself. A real big thanks goes out to Andy who was able to get some great prizes to give out including some real good books. It was a really good turn out and I think we had some real good conversation and ideas in the room. Thanks to everyone who came out for this and If you missed it Josh & I will be doing it again at CFUnited.

Another highlight was heading out to see Star Trek on Thursday night at IMAX. I really enjoyed the movie and it was a ton of fun heading out there with such a large group of people. Now the tough part comes, it's post conference and I heard a lot of really smart people talk so I have a ton of ideas running through my head. I have so many things I want to work on, just need to find a good place to start.
