Firstly, we wish you all a happy new year! And to have something good to begin the new year with, I’m already bringing great news on this very first day of 2010. There will be a major event at the University of Hawaii, which will be broadcasted online thanks to John Barrett and the Hawaii Flash User Group

Date and Time: January 6, 2010 from 6:00pm – 7:00pm Hawaii Time Zone. If you don’t live in hawaii, please check the time in your area http://www.timezonecheck.com

Michael will be presenting FDT not only to the eager community of Hawaii but in fact to the whole world via webcast.

John explained, “this is not a meeting to miss!” – showing that he is just as excited as we are. Taking every chance to show our appreciation, there will some special surprises at the end of the meeting!

As you might know the FDT Team is again an exhibitor at the Flash on the Beach in Brighton. Before they even arrived Michael Plank gave an interview about what the visitors can expect if they stop by at our booth. He also talks about some secret features which will come with the next major release of FDT. Have fun!

TAC 09 in Singapore was great! Congratulations to the TAC commitee for this perfectly organized 2 day conference.

The venue was awesome and supported the professional conference atmosphere.

After my talk, a lot of people have been excited about the topics I presented. They also wanted to get there hands on FDT to give the pure coding comfort a try.

The last conference trip started in Sydney  Australia with the WebDU conference.
From Sydney straight to the Flash On Tap conference in Boston. A really big hop causing a really bad jetlag 🙁
There was only one week between Flash On Tap and Flashbelt so I decided to stay in the US and spend the week in wonderful LA. Next stop was Flashbelt in Minneapolis. From east to west coast to somewhere in the middle. Nice!
The last conference before the summer break was the Flash at the Lake conference in Zurich – Switzerland.

Great events, great people, great everything 🙂 Love it!

Michael

Flash on Tap conference in Boston was great! Thx to all the organizers for arranging such a nice community event.

Here are the slides and files of my talk about developing an application for the web and desktop simultaneously. You will find the examples about conditional compilation, separating code in SWF modules, building with ANT and a lot more in these resources:

Hi folks,

Hi folks,

I am sitting at Helsinki Airport for stopover, flying to FITC Seoul. I did not get the time yet to post some Feedback about our awesome Prelude Event in Boston.

First Off, thanks to the guys of InfraRed5, Slot3, Domani Studios and Harvard University! Without them, we would not have been able to host it.

A small crowd gathered in the Tsai Auditorium at Harvard University Campus (bye the way, one of the best I´ve ever seen).

A big crowd was glued to their screens while watching our live stream. We had more than 400 unique users on the stream and over 1200 Clicks on the stream link. We never ever thought of reaching so many people through this little event. So thank you for your attention!!!

We are now thinking more thoroughly of streaming our different sessions at our World Roadshow together with our streaming partner Slot3! So stay tuned for new infos about that.

Thanks also to the Speakers Marcel Fahle, Michael Plank, Chris Allen and André Michelle, it was great to be at your sessions!!

Cheers,

Frank
