7 days to learn Adobe Air by the Italian master Marco Casario

March 13th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Adobe Air
Marco started a 7day-7posts with really useful information on Adobe Air. (an Adobe Flex 3 is following)
He started the posts from zero so you have to know nothing about Air in order to follow!
You can read Part 1 on his blog.
Marco is well known in the Macromedia Community and I want to believe that he is one of the reasons that 360Flex and MAXEU2008 conferences will take place in Italy!
Learn more about Marco.
I’m currently reading his latest book “Flex Solutions: Essential Techniques for Flex 2 and 3 Developers “ and I have to admit that I really enjoying it. I was kind of tired reading about “theory” of Actionscripting and “MXMXLing”(!!) so Marko’s book really helped me on this because in each chapter of the book YOU ARE MAKING something so you are able to see how it actually works!!
Since the first book I have read for Flash (from Macromedia Press) was one of this type, I just love it..
You can buy Marco’s book from Papasotiriou bookstore for 60,98 euros or just order it from Amazon for 22 euros(!!!).

Adobe’s Flash Player Not Suited For IPhone, Apple CEO Says

March 5th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Flash Player

If you are looking for something funny on the web
you can read this article on CNN about what Mr. Jobs thinks for the Flash Player on the iPhone.

Wondering about Mr. Jobs’ opinion for the Flash Player if Google hadn’t converted their youtube videos for the iPhone..
According to Mr. Jobs 300 Million devices that already shipped with Flash Lite are much better that his iPhone..
Maybe Simeon Bateman has the real story.

This is another reason that makes me believe that Apple is losing the game..
It’s a pity.
