Upcoming conferences

FFK09 Day 1

May 02nd 2009 | Jens C Brynildsen

It's that time of the year again. The largest German Flash conference kicks off and this one is bound to be quite special for me as I'm not only attending as I usually do. With more than 500 attendees this is by far the largest regional conference we know of and this is our report from the event.

Winter Conference Update

January 27th 2009 | Jens C Brynildsen

It's been a while since the last conference update and for no reason - there's plenty of events to attend if you want to learn more and get inspired! How about Tokyo, Amsterdam or Oslo this winter? Or Cologne or Toronto in the spring?

Balsamiq Mockups - a solid case for AIR

November 27th 2008 | Jens C Brynildsen

AIR has been out for a while and while there's many good applications already. I've however felt that a really good success story was missing - until 2 weeks ago. Peldi Guilizzoni left a solid position at Adobe to create an AIR app he saw a need for. 5 months later he has earned his first $100.000 and his product line is expanding. We talked to Peldi to learn more about Balsamiq Mockups and his ideas about AIR as a business.

Flash On The Beach 2008 - Day 3 (updated)

October 05th 2008 | Jens C Brynildsen

How do you empty 2 bars in a night? Put on a Flash conference in a beautiful location, give attendees inspiring sessions and then throw a party where they can network until early morning. Up until now, FOTB08 has been a blast and day 3 was no exception. It also featured the most discussed session in the entire conference.
