Did you know that the Online ColdFusion meetup held 20 meetings in 2020? or that this was our 15th year running, and that we’ve had 278 sessions (all recorded)?

In this post, I list the 20 talks as a recap, with links to the session description and recording. I want to publicly thank both the speakers (and members/attendees) as well as Dan Wilson who was instrumental in helping find and encourage most of the speakers who presented this year.

About the group

The Online CFMeetup is an entirely online CF user group which has been meeting since 2005.

You can join (for free) and/or follow us on:

The talks in 2020

Sessions from prior years (2005-2020)

You can easily view the sessions for all past years via our recordings page, where you can the same sort of list per year of titles, links to descriptions, recordings, and more.

You can even search through all the titles of all the previous years of recordings here. (This search page is hosted off-site, via Google, because meetup.com does not offer such a search feature for these pages.)

Come speak on the meetup

If you would like to present, we’re always open to any presentation that’s at all related to CF (or even Lucee, though as an official Adobe CF user group it’s a topic that can’t become dominant, despite the enthusiasm in its community! Even so, most topics we have apply to both CF and Lucee users.)

You can learn more about speaking (when sessions tend to happen, how long we tend to go, and more) at speak.coldfusionmeetup.com.

Here’s to even more sessions in 2021 and beyond!

Thanks for doing these Charlie and even more thanks for recording them.  I am not always able to attend and being able to view after the fact is great.  Also the ability to rewatch to pickup links/ideas said in passing are extremely helpful.
