Ok Flex Builder “has” this think that really bothers me. It is very annoying and makes me feed sad, first of all because of the money I gave and secondly because I can’t watching the best monitor ever, displaying my desktop like this. The “bug” is that after 30-40′ of FB (for Christ’s Sake, this does NOT stand for facebook!!) being opened and then I use expose or just close FB I can still see the Flex Navigator and the Outline panels on screen! This marvelous, hi-tech Fx is happening thanks to the new feature of my Apple Cinema 23″ HD called “ghosting“. As you may already figured out this has nothing to do with FB..What did you expect to say, that Flex Builder sucks? No, at least not for me. Flex Builder is my 455,9 MBs of paradise. Right now there are about 40 apps on my dock, do you want to know the one that I am really proud of being there? You don’t need to ask.. ;) On the other hand I was thinking that maybe my lovely monitor has started to falling in love with Flex Builder.
Anyway I wanted to play a video in a specific area on my display just to see how fast these ghosts would go away. So I opened up my video folder and I came across this super video that you can see above. I have to say that I love collecting videos, especially related to Adobe and the above is one of the best of them. Considering all the super stars in there like Kevin Lynch (yes the CTO and Senior Vice President of Adobe!!) and Matt Snow and a lot of other cool Adobes and let’s just don’t forget that the video was (it seams to) recorded in Macromedia’s core building (and Adobe’s core building for me) I thought I should post it here, just in case there is someone out there that haven’t seen it. Watch it and have fun!
Flash Player 10 beta (”Astro”) went public a few days ago and one of the main new “characteristics” is the one of the more use of the GPU. Flash Player keeps moving more and more processes from the CPU to the GPU. And as Tinic Uro (the human nature of the Flash Player) says, this doesn’t [...]
On May 22 I gave my first presentation about Flex and Air in Akto (Private College of Applied and Fine Arts). I have to admin that I was very anxious and nervous, obviously because of the fact that it was my 1st talk and in about 20 minutes I had to explain as much as [...]

Aren’t you just love Adobe?
Lets face it, Adobe it’s a Corporation. “They” (I’m using the quotes is a good way) created the Flash Platform and they could just keep it closed.. But no they didn’t. I’m not going to write about all the open source moves that Adobe has done, you can learn more here [...]
A new version of our little piece of paradise also known as Flash Player has being released today. Its version is 9.0.124.

Using MATE’s™ machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques developed in Google’s Sydney offices, we can [...]
Starting today, your Air app runs on Windows, OS X AND Linux! This is one of the few times where the term “Cross Platform” is being used correctly! More on the term here. Adobe announced today the Alpha version of the Air runtime for Linux. You can download it from Labs.

For most of the people out there, Photoshop is the king of Adobe. I don’t disagree PS is THE app, for designers, photographers etc but I can’t compare it to the beautiful Flash Platform (you know the Macromedia happiness). I would agree that we can’t and shouldn’t compare them since they are totally different. It’s [...]
We all know the static image 360 QT “movies”. What about a real movie? Is it possible? After reading Richard Galvan’s post and visiting the site of Immersivemedia I’m thinking that Flash isn’t going to stop impressing me anytime soon(if ever)..
Have a look at an impressive video or visit Immersivemedia for more..
