The Actionscript Conference 2008 @ National Library 19 October 2008

 

I’ve had the honour to attend the TAC with 50% discounted ticket price. But too bad I did not walked home with any book prize from the luckly draw, nor did I won the FDT License.

But I have a nice chat with Seet sitting beside me. He’s from Designer background and recently the company just transferred him to development, thus, he’s now a developer with designer background. I forgot to ask him about the company and stuff he is doing right now. But he’s quite interesting and always keep himself up-to-date with all the IT trends and technologies.

On the other hand, I had a fruitful discussion or rather sharing session with Kenneth, which I learnt quite a lot of things from him, which I have never heard of learnt before. He’s cool and experience which I always regard him as one of the professional developers out there. But he’s humble enough to deny what he’s shared is of much usefulness to me. Well, at least I felt contented, inspired, and motivated, haha …

I will continue to write more on the TAC later while more photos and/or videos have been made available as I didn’t take any during that day. Well, stay tuned!

  • Thank you Jenson for the support, I am putting up the photos
  • No problem man, I'm sad that the regulars actually lost interest. But it's good that we have new blood. But none of them know me, except for the Seet who have just talked to me. Hmm, time to socialize more, else would end up becoming a loner, haha ...

    Sure, let me know if it's ok to link from my blog, then I will promote it here too. Wonder my ex-students are interested or not. Some of them in Poly now.

    It's a great event, too bad one of my friend does not look very keen in Flex, he's looking at OpenLaszlo now, and use Spket IDE to code in XML and Javascript, which is aka AJAX I think, not sure he knows or not. But they might be converting them to Flash. As one of the end product he shown me is in Flash, so I think that's OpenLaszlo approach in their RIA. Another competitor to Flex, as claimed by Kenneth yesterday. Which I deeply agree :S
  • Hi Jenson

    I do not think the regulars have lost interest. We simply run out of tickets! By the time we market for in FUG, we already sold out. I know Seet too and he is a very passionate guy. He always support our event!

    Go ahead and link, I appreciate that!

    Well I believe OpenLaszlo compiles to Flash AND AJAX/HTML. I have not use it before but I still prefer the workflow of Flex. And of course, Flex 4 is comng!
  • Oh yeah, I overlooked that. But where are the rest in our monthly meeting?

    Yeah, he said he has not been going for our monthly meeting for quite long, so I persuade him that now the meeting is generally better than before. Now the FUG is growing stronger!

    So he said he probably would start to pop by next month, I think it's a good sign!

    Oh, I never know that he always support the events.

    Okay, I will edit my post and link the proper images later on. I don't like OpenLaszlo's approach, and of course, like you, I like Flex! Ah, Flex 4, but then it would have Flex Builder 4 again I suppose? Hmm... Have you come across with any free open source IDE for Flex/AIR before?

    I love the beauty of Flex Builder, but it's not free =X
