printf( "Hello world!\n" );

Why do I have the nagging feeling that blogging has suddenly become unhip?

Thanks for showing up anyway. I hope to use this blog to write up some of the fun things I'm learning as I make the leap from diehard C++ developer to a Web 2.0 GUI guy.

I've recently started developing rich internet apps running on the Flash platform, using Adobe's Flex Builder 2 and the Apollo desktop framework. I'm especially intrigued by how easy it is to develop useful apps using Flex.

There is a great body of Flex & Flash work online, and I hope I can contribute some worthwhile stuff as well. Some of that contribution depends on your, dear reader, so let's try and make this blog into a useful conversation.
