August 20th 2008 | Jens C Brynildsen

This update was released a couple days ago, but we have not seen it mentioned. The Flex SDK and Flex Builder was just updated to support AIR 1.1, Flash Player 10 as well as numerous bug fixes. This update is probably worth downloading and installing for all Flex users.

August 15th 2008 | Jens C Brynildsen

Yesterday, a small bomb exploded among the Flash programming community - the proposed ECMAScript 4 standard will not become the next generation of Javascript.

This is just so sweet. About 2 years ago, we saw a C64 emulator. Today it's a full MAME arcade emulator done in Flash. Now you can play those classic games directly in your browser thanks to the power of Flash plugin. The selection of games are a little limited for now and sound is missing but the emulator plays really well for a first version!
