I recently had to set up my work PC, and found out that there's a good set of utilities that I'm often using and take for granted.
Some are new to me, and some are alternatives to paid programs that I've lost licenses to. I typically like to use open source over paid licenses, and this round I've managed to do a pretty good job at finding a well rounded set of tools to do the job!

I wanted to take just a short time out to discuss (read: rant) something that is near and dear to my heart.
Formatting...
It seems simple, and most importantly seems obvious, but it's too frequent I see formatting faux-pas all over the place. My most recent experience was having to dive into an AS2 project, only to realize it's been six (wow SIX?!?! ALREADY!?!) years since my short stint of AS2 development. So what's a developer to do? Ah yes, consult the documentation.
Flash Player is the environment where all of our Flex and Flash products run in, and it also heavily influences the way Adobe AIR functions as well.
Hopefully in this session we'll see some fundamental functionality of how Flash Player works, and maybe some tricks to alleviate some of the headaches we see as Flash/Flex developers.
Grant Skinner braves the daunting task of telling all of us what we should know (and I assume that we DON'T know). Either way, it had a kickass intro... Wonder what the track was.
A set of his slides can be found on his website: http://gskinner.com/talks/things/

About Me
I'm primarily a software developer ranging from scripting and OOP languages such as gw-basic to Flex.
I'm always trying to learn something new and often I find some things are poorly or incorrectly documented, outdated, or just plain difficult to find information on. So I decided to start this blog to try and help others along the same quest by simplifying things and explaining it a bit more.
