360Flex newsletter and updates signup

Since we’re no longer taking registrations for 360Flex, we thought it would make sense to give people a chance to not miss the boat for upcoming events. You can sign up to be kept in the loop on news, upcoming events, etc in the 360 Conference space. As the form says, none of the names and emails will be sold, or given out. I hate that! the only people with access to the subscriber list will be Tom, Ted and myself the conference coordinators.

We had a lot of people almost miss, and completely miss out because they didn’t even know about the conference, this is everyone’s chance to be ‘in the know’

The form will be live on the 360site very shortly, but here’s a link if you just can’t wait :)

 

 

Newsletter registration page

Since 360Flex is sold out, I worked up a (soon to go live) registration page for people to sign up  so that we can keep ‘em posted on future events, and such. It was my first time using a RemoteObject (Usually use web services) figured I’d try some stuff I hadn’t used betore.

With a little guidence from Sim, I was ablet o get my first (simple) RemoteObject set up and running. This is also my first new application using MYsql, since I am trying to ween myself off of M$ products. I don’t mis Windows but sure do miss M$ SQL.

Also took advantage of Abdul Qabiz’s AS class for getting name value pairs out of the URL. He made it remarkably easy to to pick out vars from the URL.

import com.abdulqabiz.utils.QueryString;

if (qs.parameters.code)
                    subscriberRO.confirmation(qs.parameters.code);

in this case i’m simply looking for the url var ‘code’ which has the confirmation code from the auto generated email that the user received.

The app should go live tomorrow.

Goooood morning SAN HO-Say!!!

Well not yet, but I’ll be there in a few more hours. Last I checked my flight is still going to be leaving snow covered DEN at 8:25am, local time. I’ve snow blowered my drive way 5 times today, hope DIA is as on top of it as I am :)

Can’t wait to land and get to down to business with Tom and Ted, and get some serious 360Flex planning done.

If all goes according to plan, I’ll have a new project when I land back in Denver tomorrow night…. Fingers crossed there :)
