ColdFusion and Blogger

A lot of ColdFusion bloggers use BlogCFC. I think BlogCFC is great, but I've always used Blogger and it works great with ColdFusion. Blogger's got some key features built in that I like just a little bit more than BlogCFC, and it also seems to get indexed in search engines faster. So how do you use Blogger with ColdFusion? It's simple! Just set your blogger account to publish to your ColdFusion server via FTP. Then edit your template to include a header and footer file built in ColdFusion. I used cfimport and a single customtag which renders my layout. The last step is to change your publishing file name to "index.cfm" or "blog.cfm." Now all of your files get published with the CFM extension, so any CF code in your template will be rendered like ColdFusion.
