I Got Fever And The Only Prescription Is More Peter Bell

Posted June 25, 2007 at 2:58 PM

Tags: ColdFusion

That is, of course, a paraphrasing of the cult classic, Christopher Walken - More Cowbell. But, that aside, I wanted to give a shout out to Peter Bell for a tremendous first year of blogging about ColdFusion and Application Generation. A lot of what Peter talks about on his blog goes a bit beyond my understanding of programming; but, this can only be a good thing as much of it forces me to learn new things and explore new ideas. And, while I cannot always contribute to his blog, in the form of comments, I feel like I can always take something away from it. So, thank you Peter Bell for forcing me outside of my comfort zone.


  
  
  

 
Congratulations Peter Bell On One Year Of Blogging  
 
  
  

Can't wait to see what you have in store next year :)

I'll second that - what really helped was seeing Peter's talk at Scotch this year - eventually something will just click together in your brain (like it did in mine) and you'll be all DSL that, AOP the other :-)
