We stumbled across this interesting looking resource today. XMethods have a listing of Web Services that are available in various programming languages including ColdFusion, .NET, Delphi etc. There’’s one there from Ben Forta for tip-of-the-day. An option to try the Web Service is available there.
XMethods Web Services Listing
A standard install of Windows 2000 sets up a lot of services to run by default. In practice many of these are not needed and at best consume resources and at worst impact security. The web site I have a link to below is pretty good at recommending what services can be disabled for a [...]
I don”t remember seeing the three UML diagrams up on the Mach-ii site before so if they have been there for ages, apologies. Anyhow they are certainly helpful so I am blogging this for our sake at Webapper. They are hard to read in a browser but if you download them locally and use a [...]
Sean Corfield has often blogged and commented on the values of utilizing UML in web application development. As web application engineering and design becomes more of a object paradigm, as with ColdFusion and Components (CFC’’s) it becomes easier to apply UML in our day to day development work. As we have often said the days [...]
We are involved in the FuseBox 4.0 MX beta and as a result we were directed to this very interesting and useful site. This is a free service based on Macromedia Flash for creating UML diagrams and documentation.
BitTorrent looks like a very promising protocol wherever multiple downloads of large files are needed.

This reapportions the cost of uploads to downloaders. BitTorrent looks [...]
I posted the other day about setting up a new server install for some new projects Webapper have and some of the woes we were facing in doing that. In short I could not get Win2k to install on two of the boxes but the BSOD errors were different and misleading and also somewhat random. [...]
Excuse the Christmas btw I know that is somewhat politically incorrect but I spent my first 40 years in England and we just call it so there. Anyhow here at Webapper we decided on a really nice sort of expensive Xmas preso. We bought ourselves three brand-new servers, oh the joy the excitement. Twin Xeon [...]
Mae West was a rather funny and slightly naughty lady from some years ago. She had many famous lines. Is that a Gigabit Ethernet Switch in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me! was almost one. The MAE Internet Exchange Facilities are the main points where ISP’’s can interconnect. There are four [...]
We just tried something; took a 52 page ColdFusion Developers Journal in PDF (my favorite) and created a Flash Paper version. The load time of the Flash Paper version (all 52 pages with graphics etc) in a browser is astoundingly fast in comparison. Does anyone know if Syscon is and are considering putting out the [...]
