BlogCFC is a free, open source, ColdFusion blogging application. Features include: skinning, comment moderation, user subscriptions, slideshows, search engine safe URLs, and podcasting. BlogCFC is in use at over 500 different blogs around the world. BlogCFC requires ColdFusion 7 or a compatible CFML engine and works with MySQL, SQL Server, Access, and Oracle 10g.
when i first downloaded BlogCFC many moons ago, i was mainly interested in looking over the code to see how it was built, etc. eventually, i wanted to create a blog of my own and after looking around, i settled on BlogCFC for a few reasons: 1) it's built in ColdFusion, 2) it's open source, 3) since i know how helpful the CF community is in general, i knew that if i ever had a problem, it wouldn't be very difficult to find someone ready to lend a hand, 4) it was easy to setup, 5) i actually had fun trying to customize it (although it required a pretty thorough search of the files/css, etc.) 6) the ongoing revisions and support from not only the original author, but also many other talented CFers out there and finally 7) while i really wanted to create/author my own blog application, i've got plenty of other projects that needed my attention so why try to reinvent the wheel?
