I’ve just finished importing my blog from medical school into my wordpress blog.  It was weird reading that some 5 years.
I have to find the sql file from my other blog from during residency- I had emailed it to myself years ago because that seemed like a good idea at the time.  I still need [...]

There are almost no docs on the web about using the Collections Property feature in Flash 8 Component building.
I’ve come across a couple of tutorials on it so I’m listing them here so I don’t have to Google for 20 minutes every time I need to do this.

This one’s pretty basic. I was messing with the ColorChooser and decided to toy
around with the dynamic component generation by adding components to two VBox containers already on the stage.
From there I went ahead and had the new element add itself to an alternating column. I’m finding that once [...]

I sometimes take the benefits of Flash Video for granted. Until I get this

My mother also called me to let me know that it will take her about 3 hours to download the installer on her dial-up connection. Guess she won’t get to enjoy her grandson’s video until I convert it to FLV. [...]

If you haven’t stopped by and checked out the Flex 2 Video tutorials at Adobe labs yet they’re worth the look.

They demonstrate a lot of the new features of Flex builder 2 and take yoiu through a quickstart of building an app.
Along the lines of Flex Learning- the last article at DevNet about the Cairngorm [...]

I was loving This pixel3D effect in Flex but I went to the link today and it was not working. There have been a lot of changes to the Actionscript API in Flex and this probably is braking a lot of the alpha and beta 1 experiments out there. At tleast we [...]

I’ve learned that when I feel lioke my head is about to explode when I’m reading about something in some code it’s because I haven’t reached the point in my programming career yet to absorb and make use of the tool. This has been the case with Event Bubbling. The first three or four [...]

I’ve been trying to do a lot of Java exploring lately because I find really neat apps that might make good porting candidates.  Either way I wanted  to post and example because I’m very much a learner through parallel paths (Abstraction –sorry couldn’t resist the pun) so when I understand something in one language it [...]

I’m posting this link because I spent several hours last week on a wild goose chase because of this very Flash Quirk.
After a few hours I came across it at OSFlash while looking for something entirely different. It’s definitely worth noting and I will be back to check out numbers nine through 1!

I came across an excellent article while searching for Eclipse shortcut tutorials. It’s geared toward Java developers but still useful in an ActionScript context.
Okay maybe I’m taking this Eclipse love thing too far. I’m just really impressed at what the environment can do when I’m doing these Java tutorials. I just watched [...]

Mike potter has posted a third blog entry about Flex and PHP integration.   This one focuses on using AMFPHP
I think I’m going to need to just start a set of links for AMfPHP and Flex related stuff for myself so I can keep track of them.

The Flex 2 Beta 2 is now available for download. Also available is RDS for use with Flex. I’m honestly not 100% sure what I’m going to be using RDS for yet- Since I don’t know exactly what it does but it sounds like a “goodie” that I will appreciate when my [...]

Go beyond Ajax with Flex 2.  Right across the top of the Java Developer’s journal I got yesterday.  It also came with a CD Rom with a free comy of the FLex 2 beta. How’s that for getting the word out.
I was a little disappointed because I didn’t see it mentioned again insidre the actual [...]
