Beyond MG and M2: Continuations for Stateful Web programming
This is about as a good an introduction as I have ever seen to the concept of continuation servers (which I have mentioned a number of times before).
While continuations are by definition a function of languages that use closures, the same basic approach could be mimicked in CF by simply storing a modest set of information in session state.
I am not convinced that continuations are the one true way to write web apps, but I think it is time to get beyond a simple stateless event=xxx paradigm and to talk about more interesting approaches . . .
What is everyone else doing?!
