Woot, more resumé fodder! [Note to my employer: Not that I'm looking! ;)]
Today I found out that I'm among those selected to join the Adobe Community Professionals program (formerly Community Experts, aka A.C.E. — but there was a conflict with Adobe Certified Experts, thus the change).
I took over as manager of Philly CFUG last October, and through that I've been working on my stage-freight and hopefully helping the Philly CF community start to re-awaken. I'm working on my own presentations, submitting topics for conferences and CFUG meetings, and still working as a copy editor for FAQU, which I personally hope finds a way to get back into print as the economy stabilizes.
2010 is going to be a great year. I'm just glad I get to go along for the ride.

I was hoping to have more time to get my ducks in a row before making an official announcement, but something's come up with a sense of urgency, so I'm just going to kind of unload on you. Sorry about that.
I'm taking over as the manager of the Philly CFUG. I'm still working out the details of organizing our next meeting, but in the meantime I've setup a Twitter account, should you care to follow it.
Now, on to more pressing matters. I just posted this to the PhillyCFUG blog, and it went out via email to the blog subscribers. I figure it can't hurt to cross-post it here as well.
Automated Financial Systems, in Exton, is looking for a ColdFusion developer for immediate assistance. Some experience in server administration would be a bonus.
They don't have an in-house resource for ColdFusion development, but have an immediate need to address errors that their website is generating, as well as a security issue; and they hope to have these problems addressed by Wednesday of next week – November 4th.
In addition, they would like assistance upgrading from an older version of ColdFusion (they think 5) to version 7.
Contact Jerry ThompSon via email (JThompSon@afsvision.com) or via mobile phone (610-496-1456).

The Wharton School of Business, where I work, currently has multiple ColdFusion developer positions open. One of them is even on my team.
The work is challenging and engaging, you'll work with several other ColdFusion developers, the clients — ivy league professors, students, and staff — have high expectations, the pay and benefits are competitive if not superior, and the work conditions are excellent (Example: free Starbucks coffee).
If that sounds like the kind of development shop you want to work for, and you're in the greater Philadelphia area (or willing to relocate) then you should check out our job postings. (Search for "ColdFusion" in the description field)

The developers at my office, Wharton Computing, get together monthly to remind ourselves that we are all normal (well, mostly normal) people with interests and hobbies outside of work, and to relax a little bit; and we're extending the invitation to the entire PhillyCFUG group.
It's a great opportunity to blow off a little steam, get to know your peers, and if you're into that sort of thing, do some networking. (You know, we do have a couple of open positions. You can search in the Org "Wharton Computing and Instructional Technology")
This month we're meeting TOMORROW — June 4th — at 4:00 pm, at Slainté, on the corner of 30th and Market — the opposite corner from 30th Street Station. Typically we're there until at least 6:00, but the bar has a great atmosphere and I've personally stayed at one of our happy hours until around 9:30, just hanging out talking about geeky stuff with a bunch of people, before retreating to the suburbs.
It's a great time, and we hope you'll come join us.
See you there!
