I recently met with some very interesting people and we all had an extended, engaged conversation about applied user experience. During our meeting, we broke out into different sub-groups, each sub-group engaged in a particular aspect of the larger user experience discussion.
My group's collective interest was in game theory / creative code applications / information and idea visualization / prototyping.
Who wants to beta test some ultra secret rad @ribbit Flash / Flex stuff ? On Twitter, DM or ping @brendanlee for details! I have something very cool for you in return for your time and effort. Looking for 5 Flash IDE and 5 Eclipse IDE. Crossover is fine. If you can compile AIR, bonus!
Flare is an ActionScript library for creating visualizations that run in the Adobe Flash Player. From basic charts and graphs to complex interactive graphics, the toolkit supports data management, visual encoding, animation, and interaction techniques.
Adobe launched groups.adobe.com around MAX 2008 last November. Visiting the site, you'll learn its goal:
Adobe user groups provide a forum of support and technology to business and creative professionals of all levels.
Adobe is changing the name of their product Flex Builder. It will now be called Flash Builder. I wanted to continue a personal blog post, where I give my thoughts on the name change, here to discuss with you what it means for Ribbit's platform offerings.
We are still going to develop, maintain and enhance our platform offerings to address both ways designers and developers build Flash applications.
I had to put my augmented reality demo on hold for this week as I have been building out some ultra cool projects here for ( along with the augmented reality ) for the Creativity and Technology conference in New York.
If you are attending, come by and see us do some demos!
We have been working hard to integrate Flash and our RESTful API, generally through a PHP proxy. Why is this so cool to me?
