I didn’t know that Macromedia (now Adobe) would release the video from ColdFusion’s 10th birthday party but here it is on Google Video. Several of the members of the founding team (JJ and Jeremy Allaire, Charles Teague, Adam Berrey and I) go through memory lane and cover ground from how Allaire was bootstrapped to how the ColdFusion name came about to how we ended up in Boston as opposed to the Valley. Some good lessons in there about the winding road of startups.
