Two posts in a week, what?! So rather than referring to my upcoming project simply as "project" I figure I'll give it a codename to put it into context. This one is particular will be known as Nibbler, based on the character in the Matt Groening series Futurama.
What can I tell you about Nibbler?
- It's a social website
- I'm not a big fan of social websites in general so I'm a bit selfconscious about the whole thing.
- It surrounds a niche market of which there are already several others in the space.
- Written in CFML, currently Coldfusion, but I'll certainly test it with the various open source engines.
- The framework used will be Fusebox.
- Launch date: when it's done (maybe September)
Additional, I have thought of another possible site I'd like to develop. If I can spend a weekend spec'ing and coming up with a mockup I may attempt to work on both at once utilizing the same general components (session, error, user generation, login, etc). No codename determined, yet.

varScoper
Any Coldfusion developer with an application that utilizes CFCs should add this to their toolkit. VarScoper runs various pattern tests against your CFCs to make sure you're properly scoping your variables. Without properly scoping variables it'll lead to variable overwriting and/or User A viewing data meant for User B which isn't always apparent when a single developer is testing on a dev environment.
