Live GPS Data with Merapi and Adobe AIR
Closed Published August 23rd, 2008 on Ryan Stewart - Rich Internet Application MountaineerOne of the coolest demos from 360|Flex was watching Jordan Snyder hook up Merapi and Adobe AIR and use an AIR application to control a remote controlled car. It did a great job of showing off the cool stuff you can do if you let AIR connect to devices and native code. Unfortunately we don’t […]
What Do You Think About The Current Adobe AIR Certificate Situation?
Closed Published August 22nd, 2008 on Ryan Stewart - Rich Internet Application MountaineerI was watching Craig Cmehil’s Friday morning report and he said a lot of really good things about AIR. Craig is a big fan and it’s always great to have someone like him doing some community evangelism for us, so thanks Craig. But he has a frustration. He doesn’t like how we do AIR certificates.
I […]
I’ve made no secret of my love for OmniFocus and it’s integration in my workflow. As a result, I often have people ask me more about how to use OmniFocus, or even about how I use it specifically. I’m not surprised. OmniFocus does have a learning curve, and it is not intuitive for a first-time […]
360Flex - Now With More Awesome
Closed Published August 21st, 2008 on Ryan Stewart - Rich Internet Application MountaineerI’ve been in a weird mood lately (notice how my blogs have gotten a bit quieter) so part of me was dreading 360|Flex. It’s always great to see everyone but I wasn’t sure I’d been tapped into the community enough lately. I was partly right and partly wrong. It turns out the Flex community has […]
I’ve spent a bit of time over the last month designing a new blog that I’ll be launching soon, and in doing so, I’ve become aware of some design and coding habits which, when put together, clearly compromise a bit of a “design signature”. If you’ve designed more than five sites in your site, […]
At the risk of turning this into an all food-recommendation blog, my girlfriend found the best potato chips ever at the store the other day. They are called Flat Earth Baked Fruit Crisps and they are the best thing since Sun Chips. In fact, they make Sun Chips taste like dirt.
The only flavor I’ve […]
Get All of the 360Flex Sessions on AMP
Closed Published August 19th, 2008 on Ryan Stewart - Rich Internet Application MountaineerTed just blogged about the fact that you can grab all of the sessions from 360|Flex and watch them inside of AMP. I haven’t had a chance to blog much about 360|Flex but it’s been a really, really great conference again. I think the speakers this year are better than other years so this is […]
We have a little less than two weeks until The Artist’s Way Collective begins. There is still time to join us! You can read the Intro and the How it Works posts for more information.
Below is the schedule for what section we will be reading each week. The weekly hub will be posted early Monday […]
I canceled my Netflix account tonight.
Last week I was fortunate to volunteer with the Washington WIne Ambassadors at the Auction of Washington Wines Picnic with the Winemakers. This was my first event as a volunteer wine pourer, and I found it interesting, hot, and worth my time (beyond the great cause).
Having attended the picnic before as a guest, it […]
