Its funny to think that I built <a href="http://www.gotcfm.com/" target="_blank">GotCFM.com</a> over a week ago and  I still haven&apos;t had a chance to blog about it. Well, between the massive and positive response towards the site, work and a trip to California, blogging has been the last thing on my mind. Now I get to discuss it.

For those that don&apos;t know about <a href="http://www.gotcfm.com/" target="_blank">GotCFM.com</a>, I built the site as a vehicle for promoting ColdFusion-related technologies. It will be a site for CFML evangelism and knowledge. It will be a site that will let people understand why the CF community loves this engine and why ColdFusion-centric technologies *ARE* an amazing choice for building scalable and engaging websites. To get a real detailed explanation of how the site came about, go here:

Since launching <a href="http://www.gotcfm.com/" target="_blank">GotCFM.com</a> on 2/26/2007, the site has had quite a number of people visiting. This shows that CF is alive and well. That makes me VERY happy. Some quick stats since the site started:

Hits: 35,456
Page views: 6,472
Visitors: 1,313

The <a href="http://www.gotcfm.com/thelist.cfm" target="_blank">"list of sites"</a> has grown from 0 to 555 sites in just 8 days and continues to grow at a nice clip. Again, this is VERY exciting since it provides further evidence that CF is being actively used to build web prescences.

There&apos;s still more work to do, though, as I want to include the following:<ul><li>Information on how to position CF within your company

<li>Information on specific features that make CF better than other technologies
<li>Case studies on successful implementations of CF
<li>More "Powered by" buttons
<li>Banner ads that can be added to your site to promote your favorite CF engine
</ul>

I really need the help of the community though. If you have any of the information above and would like to contibute to it to the effort, please email me at rey [at] reybango [*dot*] com. Even links pointing to these types of resources are useful so please take a couple of minutes to help out.

One other <strong>VERY IMPORTANT</strong> thing that I need is Adobe&apos;s involvement. I&apos;ve sent numerous emails out and haven&apos;t received a reply. I&apos;m a little perplexed by this. I&apos;m trying to give them the benefit of the doubt but its a little disconcerting not to have received some type of feedback from them. Adobe???

I have received official support from <a href="http://www.newatlanta.com" target="_blank">New Atlanta</a> and <a href="http://www.railo.ch/en/index.cfm?treeID=105" target="_blank">Railo</a>, to which I am VERY grateful.

I want to specifically thank Andy Matthews for his GREAT assistance while I was out. He&apos;s the one that built the grouping functionality and row coloring on the site list while I was away. He also moderated the ever growing site list. Many thanks Andy!!!
