The 2009 todo list
My first aim is to aquaint myself with rails. I hear too many good
things to just ignore it so am making an effort to investigate it a
bit. I have purchased "Agile web development with rails" and started
working my way through it, so far I like it...a lot.
Continue the CFML education and pay special attention to railo 3.1.
CFML is my language of choice and I plan to keep getting better at it
and using it commercialy for new development work. I plan to attend the
Scotch On The Rocks conference in Edinburgh again this year as it was
my visit last year that really inspired me to get cracking with
ColdFusion "for real" in 2008.
Learn much more jQuery...if it can be progressively enhanced, I'll be doing that in 2009.
Version control (yes shame on me, I don't currently use anything), I am
probably going to go with Git but lets see how the year pans out.
HTML 5 - it's time to leave my XHTML 1.0 ways behind with no hissy fits
or ranting about how the xml based syntax is clearly nicer to work with
and embrace the future of the HTML language.
