Goodness. That’s come up quick. I’m speaking tomorrow straight after the keynote at Microsoft’s Remix conference here in Brighton. I’m actually really looking forward to presenting for an hour without mentioning the “F” word 😉 So I’ll be covering such rivetting subjects as : Make your work more fun Code beautiful things Sound can change […]

Flash CS4 details leaked
Apparently people “privy to private demonstrations of Creative Suite 4” have given their verdict over at AppleInsider. And they’re claiming it’s a “minor update”. Well I can’t talk about the other software, but Flash CS4 is a serious improvement from CS3. So I’m with Keith on this one. They only mention the new animation model […]
Comments now re-enabled
OK so WP-SpamFree didn’t work out so well – it was blocking everyone’s comments. I thought it had got a little quiet around here! So I’ve disabled it. Comment away!
Just when we thought this particular battle was over, it seems that Adobe have slipped back into their old habits. I was approached by Adobe a few weeks ago to speak at MAX Milan, and, like Aral before me, I had to turn them down. Why? Because they have a policy of not paying for […]
First steps in Processing
Robert Hodgin and Jeremy Thorp both told me I should give Processing a go last time I saw them. And last week I had the perfect excuse – Jamie Matthews presented a great session last week at FlashBrighton on how to get started. Jamie did a great job of explaining some of the philosophy behind […]

Papervision3D training in Amsterdam
I’ll be putting together some more Papervision workshops in the UK at some point in the next six months, but if you can’t wait for that, Ralph’s just announced his latest workshop in Amsterdam for the 21st and 22nd October. His workshops are really good fun, it’s what helped me get into Papervision at the […]
Whenever anyone asks me to recommend a good book to learn ActionScript 3, I always tell them to run on over and buy a fresh copy of Keith Peters’ Making Things Move. In fact I was quite gutted when the first AS2 version came out; I’d spent the previous 2 years working out how to […]
Captcha broken
Hmmm, someone just told me that my captcha system hasn’t been working… I wondered why it was so quiet around here! (Although I did enjoy the lack of spam comments!) I’ve disabled the captcha system while I’m researching alternatives. I hate to use those things, but I get so much spam I have no choice. […]
Resisting the cheezy puns
Unless you’ve been sitting under a rock for the last week, you’ll have noticed that the Singularity conference has now been renamed <head>. In an utterly shameless flurry of bad head-related jokes, Aral explains the reasons behind this change. This is going to be an interesting one, that’s for sure – way cheaper than traditional […]
