In the time since 360|Flex Atlanta, Ben and I have made a lot of progress on OpenFlux. The majority of my focus has been on what's called Plexiglass. It consists of an alternate view class, 3D layouts and cameras allowing you to create 3D components with as little as a ...

Since my previous entry I've made some major speed improvements, added back in the 52 cards and added 2 new 3d layouts similar to the ones in Pavan Podila's Element Flow.
We've still got some work ahead of us before this goes public but I definitely can't wait to see OpenFlux ...

I've ported over Doug McCune's CoverFlow component as 3D layouts in OpenFlux. You can switch between horizontal, vertical and carousel layout in the same List component along with a few other adjustable properties. It's highly likely there are a few bugs and I had to limit it to 20 cards ...

Need to get your Flex app talking to PayPal and have no idea how to do it? You're not alone! I spent days losing hair (and sleep) figuring out how to get Flex and PayPal to play nice with each other. I don't want anyone else to have to go ...

I just read a blog entry titled "Google's Indexing Flash Text with Adobe's SDK" over at O'Reilly's new fancy smancy InsideRIA website.

I've recently launched a Flex-based classified ads product allowing anyone to start a classified ads service. Almost the very first question I was asked was how to place a Google AdSense banner in to their app. I really didn't want to tell them that wasn't possible because I choose to ...

I haven't been posting much in my blog lately since I've been working on a personal project day and night. I've built a classified ads system using Adobe Flex and although I still have a ways to go, I launched version 1.0 today on PetsBC.com.
