    Nice work Ted.

    Check it out and post some code.

    2 months till Max

    August 22nd, 2006

    Have you registered for Max yet?  One of the most exciting things (for me at least) will be the additional information presented on the upcoming Apollo project.  The whole concept of moving my Flex apps to the desktop to a well defined and supported desktop runtime is very exciting.  I know that I have already blogged my opinions on the short comings of the Central framework but after seeing the unbelievable strides that Adobe/Macromedia accomplished with Flex 2 my confidence is high that Apollo will be a winner.  For most in the community this will be their first look at Apollo and will certainly create a buzz.

    Not convinced, check out Ben Forta’s Top 10 Reasons to Attend Max.
