We think they’re pretty cool. Hope you do too.

Happy to announce the beta launch of ExportReports.com!
It creates PDF reports of your Basecamp projects.
ExportReports.com is a collaborative effort with ColdFusion guru Terrence Ryan.
Check it out and let us know what you think.
On the technical side, Export Reports.com is written in Adobe ColdFusion 8 ’cause it works so well with PDF’s (-and we’re big fans anyway).

It was a pleasure meeting everyone and speaking to the Mid-Michigan ColdFusion Users Group about software development, web design and project management software.
The meeting was held at Michigan State University’s beautiful new facilities.
Thank you for having me and thank you to Rick Mason for putting it together.
Nick Kwiatkowski from the Michigan Flex Users Group was also there. They’ve got a great Flex 3 and AIR program coming up on February 6th. Kevin Hoyt, one of Adobe’s Platform Evanglists will be there as part of the Flex 3 and AIR pre-release tour.
Be sure to check it out.

I’ll have the pleasure of speaking to the Mid-Michigan ColdFusion Users Group on January 8th at 7pm.
The topic will be software development and design -specifically addressing the importance of adoption and factors that can improve adoption. This will include a discussion on the use of AJAX, Flash in an interface and how to choose and design specific functionality.
Here are the directions to the user group meeting.
Please feel free to stop on by.

The Vertabase Timer is now available for download directly from the Adobe Exchange.
It is a great way to track time on projects or to track time on clients (or really anything).
This is an alpha build so please sign up for the updates or check the time track message board for known issues.
Also, development of the Vertabase time tracking tool will be driven by user feedback, particularly early adopters. So fire away.
