The wait is finally over, Fanboys was released to DVD. When I first saw the trailer for this movie a couple of years ago I got really excited, hey who didn’t think of going to California and steal the movie before it came out. Well I didn’t but I thought it was a clever idea for a movie.

So I looked at my site on a mac today and what I thought might happen did! The layout wasn't all it was cracked up to be in all the Windows browsers. The sidebar was not in alignment, so I started to rewrite the whole site layout in Strict XHTML last night.

I'm also going to use a version of this layout for the CF MoBlog.  Oh and for all the BlogCFC lovers out there I am working on a CF MoBlog plug-in for BlogCFC. Should be ready in a month or two.

I setup a subdomain for cfmoblog at cfmoblog.johnramon.com and will be posting a running demo next week. I'm also looking for some beta testers. I want to test the system with a few different carriers to make sure all are supported. If your going to CFUnited that will be a plus cause I am setting up a moblog multi user page for the event...

I worked on the heart of the software this weekend (the code that gets the picture messages) and added some really cool features to it. I think the coolest part is multiple users! You will be able to add several users, the system will post with their info based off the from address in the email box. If the from email address is not found the system will delete so no worries about rouge emails.

Another thing I added was each user will be able to add their own "bad text". Bad text is what I call the footer service providers add to the bottom of your picture messages. Once I get to the admin section I will write in a complete step by step setup system.

So I got 2 new books today Learning jQuery 1.3 and jQuery UI 1.6 today. I started with Learning jQuery 1.3 and I must say I'm on chapter 4 and already have a hundred ideas floating in my head. I think this is going to benefit not only my projects but my clients as well. Cannot wait to get back into it tomorrow.

So I started with Model-Glue after i installed them all. I started with the demo app and learned alot, but I have a long way to go. I wanted to have my first app done with MG done this week but work takes priority over my side projects. So I'm hoping to have it running next week. Till then thanks for all the feedback on the subject, I know it's a touchy one.

So over the weekend I started out checking out frameworks for ColdFusion. Out of all the blog posts, podcasts, and articles I could find I'm torn between ColdBox and Model-Glue.

I have been reading anything and everything on ColdBox and Model-Glue I could find. I have looked at the pros and cons of both but wanted to ask what you guys think?
