thinking out loud

Why I love CFML

I was looking at integrating a new video encoding service into one of my projects and clicked on their developer link to see if they had sample code. I was then jazzed to find out that they had CFML sample code since that is my platform of choice. Looking at the sample code page I was blown away at how much easier it was to do the XML API integration with CFML than with other popular languages. The site was encoding.com, you should definitely take a look.

Converting MySQL to SQLite

I have begun playing around with SQLite and needed a way to convert a MySQL database into a SQLite database. After trying several different methods the one that I ended up going with was the script documented in this article.

Documenting it here so I can find it later myself.
