http://philthyfusion.instantspot.com Just my thoughts on ColdFusion en-us This work is Copyright © 2009 by PhilthyFusion RSSVille ColdFusion FeedMaker, version 1.0 Sun, 22 Nov 2009 04:11:35 GMT http://philthyfusion.instantspot.com/blog/2006/11/30/Pandora-and-Lastfm-and-ColdFusion So I have been using Pandora for my music needs for a while now and I really like it. I have been turned on to bands like Regina Spektor, The Be Good Tanyas Radio and Jack Johnson to name a few. It has been a really good experience. <br /> <br /> Today I read a post on CF-Talk about the ColdFusion group on Last.fm. I decided to give it a try. So far I cant figure out how to listen to music I want to listen to. When I tried listening to the ColdFusion group station, I about barfed. Ashley Simpson and Jennifer Lopez? What the.....<br /> <br /> Well the service looks good and there are a lot of features. I just can&#39;t find the one that lets me create my own station with my type of music. Pandora lets me have multiple stations which I like. I may want to listen to VNV Nation one day and Portishead the next. How the heck do I do that with Last.fm?<br /> <br /> I&#39;ll stop complaining now. <br /> <br /> Thu, 30 Nov 2006 19:41:49 GMT http://philthyfusion.instantspot.com/blog/2006/11/30/Pandora-and-Lastfm-and-ColdFusion Music http://philthyfusion.instantspot.com/blog/2006/10/10/Blogability I was reading this entry on Sean Corfield&#39;s blog.<br /> <a href="http://corfield.org/blog/index.cfm/do/blog.entry/entry/Closures_updated" target="_blank" title="http://corfield.org/blog/index.cfm/do/blog.entry/entry/Closures_updated">http://corfield.org/blog/index.cfm/do/blog.entry/entry/Closures_updated</a><br /> I got to it from fullasagoog.com and it sounded interesting. The problem was, I had no idea what he was talking about. I tried clicking the link &quot;Closures for CFMX&quot; but that just gave me a zip file. I looked around the site and didn&#39;t find an easy way of gathering info about Closures. <br /> <br /> I&#39;ve had this problem on a lot of peoples blog sites that are ColdFusion related. People use their blog to talk about their apps and thats cool. The problem I have is that there is not always a one click link on their blog that talks about the app in question. <br /> <br /> This seams to be a usability issue. Minimal clicks to get the user to their destination. That&#39;s what I have always focused on. Maybe its just me but we should be trying to make gathering information about a simple tool like ColdFusion as simple as possible. The better we as developers market the tools we use, the easier it is for us to market our selves. <br /> <br /> <br /> Tue, 10 Oct 2006 19:35:14 GMT http://philthyfusion.instantspot.com/blog/2006/10/10/Blogability CF Community
