SOME RANDOM DUDE

There are times where I reject my nerd-dom, and then there are times where I embrace it. I am making a concerted effort to put increased emphasis on the design in my design technology title. Still, I am greatly looking forward to going to the Flex Camp hosted by Adobe on July 27. The event is free and I have no doubt that I will learn a tremendous amount about all the Flex 3 has to offer. Additionally, there are many nuances to Flex that I have yet to pick up on - thus, I will take advantage of any free learning conference I get in.

If you are interested in Flex, and are in the San Francisco Bay Area on Friday, July 27, you really should sign up for the event. Once again, it is completely free and you will learn a whole lot.adobe, adobe event, design technology, events, flex, flex 3, flex camp, francisco bay area, free learning, learning conference, nerd, san francisco bay area technology title

Silverlight has been quite the buzz around the internet lately. Microsoft’s new product explicitly takes aim at Flash as they try to take on the rich media arena. Up to this point, Flash has basically stood alone at the top as the rich media standard for the browser. I will explain why, from my point of view, I do not see Silverlight changing that reality any time in the near (or far) future.
