Sydney UG: Flex 3 and AIR Pre-Release with Danny Dura
Last night the Rocketboots conference room was packed. Danny Dura showed us the new Flex 3 features and also gave an overview of what will be coming with AIR 1.0.

After seeing what AIR is capable of I’m feeling sorry for Multidmedia Zinc.
I got really excited with AIR, though I have been using some apps, like twhirl… I’m actually writing this blog post with an AIR app, it’s an Adobe AIR Sample “Bee” on labs and it includes the source code.
** UPDATE **
I couldn’t manage to publish with BEE, I was getting a malformed XML error from the publish XML-RPC command. Anyway, the BEE App looks a quite good considering it’s a labs sample. I reckon mixing it up with buzzword would be awesome and also adding drag and drop functionality to publish images. I might look into the source code and give it a try.
Here’s a small video that I took with my mobile at the beginning of Danny’s preso (automatically converted from mobile .3gp to flv by flashCMS):

Thanks Joshua for pointing out the slides from the tour by Ben Forta.
