Happy 12th Birthday To ColdFusion

Posted July 10, 2007 at 7:56 AM by Ben Nadel

I can't believe that ColdFusion is already 12 years old. It feels like only yesterday that I was attending the 10 year birthday celebration at the New York ColdFusion User Group. It's such an awesome language and it keeps getting better with each new release. ColdFusion 8 promises to be the best release yet and it looks like Adobe is going to continue the tradition of excellence with v9.0 already in the works.

@Mark,

I'll take a crack at it :) I don't know how much coding I am going to be doing this week (it's too freakin hot here!), so graphics give me something to keep busy ;)
