Nice to discover yet another Flash MX Blog – ericd.net. Eric Dolecki has a weblog that is a study in information overload, but at the same time the information is still very accessible. I think I would have to spend a day to scratch the surface of all the content he is linking to.

CNO (Chris Norman), moderator at Flash Kit is responding to my article: Flash Kit Community – Flashkit is going under? To make such a broad and sweeping statement to sell your own ideas is somewhat reminicent of the infamous “Flash is 99% bad” soundbite. The new weblogging trend is great for developers – I make JD and Mike’s a daily read. But I really get the impression from “articles” like this that the Wired article has created some inflated egos, and in the same respect, I think the market for

28th of may I will be 29 for the third time, and one or more of these wouldn’t be bad. *g*. Apple seem to have produced a killer server with their Xserve server. I will probably be looking into using these boxes for web hosting/streaming later this year. Trust me, this is cool stuff (although not exactly revolutionary in any way): Mac OS X Server recognizes Mac, Windows, UNIX and Linux clients right out of the box, providing cross-platform support for key server services, such as Apache web server and

CHris (Flazoom) points to my blogging about the Flash community and need for support from the money-makers. Some interesting comments there too. We are in dire need of some sugar daddies in the Flash community, that much is for sure. Phillip Torone and John Dowdell are among the people that has joined in on the discussion of how Macromedia (and others) can support the Flash community sites.. Join in on the discussion if you have a suggestion to how the Flash community sites can start making some money, and who

I admit I have seen this one before, but haven’t had the time to explore it until now. Waldo’s Weblog is Waldo Smeets blog which focuses on all things MX. As Waldo writes himself “Waldo Smeets, Macromedia MX freak”. With the new line of products from Macromedia being so indegrated, I am sure I’ll have to keep watching what is going on there. (Unfortunatly its another weblog without an RSS feed).

How Microsoft Went After Linux Kempin recommended that computer makers who were not “friendly” with Microsoft should be hit “harder than in the past with anti-Linux actions.” Somehow I am neither shocked nor surprised.
Dave Winer writes about his first real eureka experience with usability, its a blast from the past – one that will be as true tomorrow as it was yesterday. DaveNet : A Brief User Interface Manifesto I remember, as if it were yesterday, my first experience with a user. I had been developing a software product for three years, all the while thinking it was easy to use. A friend who had been listening to me gush about how great it was asked if he could try it. Hesitantly I

Wanted to point out a discussion about the “Gonzo marketing related to the Flash community” that has been going on: Gonzo marketing related to the Flash community : comments Chris – Flazoom: I hope that Macromedia is learning. I hope that their new blogs will clue them into the demand put on community site owners.
