Hey everyone -- My notes from the day 1 general session at MAX 2008 are over at my main/regular Flash blog Flashthusiast. You can find them here: http://flashthusiast.com/2008/11/17/liveblogging-max-2008-day-1-general-session-keynote-click-refresh/. If you're into general sessions and excessive barely legible writing.
A quick public service announcement that I have started up a new blog at a new domain (Flashthusiast.com). I'll be blogging about Flash authoring tool there (now that I re-joined the Flash team... by the way), instead of here.
Also, I just blogged about the AIR update as it pertains to Flash CS3 (mostly - where can you get that update??)
Adam Phillips of Biteycastle.com has finished creating yet another amazing animation. His description of it is as follows:
Bitey's short-sighted arrogance lands him in a world of hurt and the fastest creature in the world is brought to a slow, painful crawl.
It's really an inspiring piece of animation - the effects, "camera" work, and characters are simply amazing. I heartily recommend watching it.
