1 Comment Posted by on January 11, 2011

This afternoon Google announced that they were dropping support for the H.264 codec in future releases of their browser, Chrome.  If you want to read more about the announcement, check it out here.  Essentially their argument is that they want to support Open-Source.  And there is no better way to support open-source than to include [...]

Debugging on embedded systems with AIR (including Adobe TV)

3 Comments Posted by on December 31, 2010

One of the projects I was recently involved with had me setup an unsusal enviroment — debugging an embedded device that ran Adobe AIR.  There are not a whole lot of specifics that I can talk about for that particular project, but one of its aspects I can talk about — debugging the AIR and Flex [...]

AIR for TV — The Virtual Keyboard

1 Comment Posted by on November 28, 2010

As I’ve been porting some of my AIR for TV applications over from Flex, one thing I quickly realized was that I was missing a way to get user input.  While AIR exposes all the remote buttons as Keyboard events, there is a real disconnect if you want to accept alpha based input (most remotes [...]

Creating Mobile Applications from a Photoshop Prototype

1 Comment Posted by on November 12, 2010

This past Thursday, I was given the opportunity to present on a really cool, but obscure topic — creating mobile applications from Photoshop prototypes, for the World Usability Day Conference.  Essentially, my job was to show people a workflow that is possible when using Adobe Device Central to create a Photoshop file, that is then turned [...]

Adobe MAX write-up

1 Comment Posted by on October 31, 2010

I’ve just come back from this year’s Adobe MAX conference, and oh, boy was it a whirlwind! I fell that Adobe outdid themselves this year and set the bar much higher.  I guess being in the same location more than one year in a row lets them concentrate on content rather than logistics. The theme [...]

OAuth and Flex/AIR — Making Twitter work again.

5 Comments Posted by on July 20, 2010

Quite a while ago I posted an entry on how to make a quick Twitter Client.  Over the past few months, Twitter decided that basic authentication was no longer the best way to go, and they needed some way to help users protec their accounts.  Their solution is the OAuth protocol, which is now required [...]

Three strikes, and your out Apple!

5 Comments Posted by on April 9, 2010

In the past few weeks, there have been disappointment after disappointment coming out from Apple for developers.  While the iPad seems to have made a big splash news-wise, its release has been lightly overshadowed by some other announcements from Apple — the iPad will not allow Flash, Java or Silverlight content within the browser.  In [...]

Hardware Hacking with Flex and the Arduino

3 Comments Posted by on March 28, 2010

This weekend I had a chance to play some more with the Arduino that I got at 360|Flex.  I’ve got so many ideas of things I want to build with it, which is probably a bad thing.  I’ve got $60 worth of parts coming from SparkFun just so I can play with more than a [...]

Flash Builder Client-Side Data Management vs. LCDS

2 Comments Posted by on February 18, 2010

One question I am asked fairly regularly is this : “Now that Flash Builder will include what they call Client-Side Data Management, why would anybody need Adobe’s LiveCycle Data Services?”  Until this latest version of Flash/Flex Builder and Flex, there was a very clear distinction for when you needed LiveCycle Data Services and when you could [...]

Adobe MAX Wrap-Up

Leave a Comment Posted by on October 12, 2009

So, I’m back from LA, and the Adobe MAX 2009 conference. Just like the MAX tagline of “Connect, Discover, Inspire,” I truly able to accomplish all of those.  This year’s conference packed in a lot of announcements, and gave everybody a good idea of where Adobe is heading in the marketplace.  All of the keynotes and [...]
