Hello! This is primarily a marketing question, but I need your help. I am involved in an RFP which includes the fuzzy requirement -- “The application must be based on Web 2.0 technologies.” Our application is written in ColdFusion. So -- how would you explain the relationship, if any, btwn ColdFusion and Web 2.0? Thanks in advance, ~Lance

    ColdFusion, particularly 8, has a bunch of 'Web 2.0' buzz words built
    right in.

    Usually when on hears "Web 2.0" the speaker is referring to 'Rich
    Internet Applications" And this means making the User Interface of a
    web application more like a desk top application then just a HTML
    document inside a browser desktop application.

    When you start trying to build something like this. You are going to
    start using AJAX, XML, FLASH, DHTML and other buzzwords and acronyms.
    All of which ColdFusion can work with just fine. And in the latest
    version often make quite easy.
