  • NET FRUGALITY

    We Flash and Flex developers and for that matter, anyone developing Web 2.0 content have enjoyed a free ride on the bandwidth bandwagon. While fiber optic vendors have scurried to lay the last mile of our super highway, none of us have paid much attention to the weight of our applications. But that is all soon to change. Resolution be damned, we are all being ushered into the wireless era, and like it or not, the game is changing.

  • Communicating with the browser

    Sometimes Flash just isn’t enough to get the job done. Often times you might need to communicate with code outside the Flash Player, such as JavaScript in an HTML page.

  • Flex and PHP Mobile

    Mobile is big. The web is big. Services are big. It is no secret that in the past several years the API has become king. Simply accessing a web site is not sufficient any more.
