  graph example

  03.07.08 | Permalink | Comment?

  Well I learned something today. It’s a new expensive world, making desktop apps. Apparently you need a digital certificate from a certification authority like Verisign or Thawte.
  I’m certainly not shelling out the $300 just for a little example app, so you will have to download and install at your own risk.
  Here it is - [...]

  3d graph with papervision3d and air/sqlite

  I’m building on a little 3D graph app for work, based on AIR and Papervision3D.
  It’s a graph on which one axis contains all the days in the year, another one contains all the half-hours in a day, and the third is the level of … um … some kind of level the client wants to [...]

  The app I’m writing should be [...]

  Been checking out some AIR apps recently … I had a go at the Ebay desktop client but wasn’t terribly impressed. It has some improvements over the website, but the controls feel awkward, and the flow is not always obvious.
  Snitter is an AIR app for the Twitter service that lets you view recent tweets, and [...]

  air / flex 3 prerelease tour

  A few days ago I went to the Sydney installment of the Adobe AIR / Flex 3 pre-release tour, where Daniel Dura, Adobe’s “Platform Evangelist” (which apparently doesn’t mean a born again new romantic, it means someone who spreads the word about the Adobe platform, which means, I guess, the Flash Player and related development [...]
