More Preface

Last fall I Started working on my first blog with the determination to help Flash designers overcome the banality of programming and learn to understand and embrace OOP AS2 (Actionscript 2) programming. Without going too far into detail, many things changed that caused me to re-evaluate that plan.

I’ve been working like mad in AS3 and Flex and expect to tap into AIR very soon as well. There’s a part of me that wants to also talk about mid-to-high level tricks and solutions, which doesn’t go along with the previous focus. Finally, since my previous blog, I co-founded Mixwit – an online social media platform that has raised many eyebrows.

So if you ever wonder why my posts seem completely random, it’s because I’m trying to fill in holes in many different places and trying to relate my experience of designer/developer/media-professional…

I want.

My Blog v3

Hi All,

This is my third attempt at writing a blog to share useful ideas and tools with the Flash community.

The first two attempts went very well but were obliterated due to my lack of understanding (and patience) for hosting, maintaining, and updating my own WordPress blog. Between Aug ‘07 and now were five software updates to WordPress and I quickly lost control of my files.

After the simplicity of hosting the Mixwit Blog on wordpress.com, I’ve learned that stability is far more impressive that cool third-party features. I’ve always hosted my own sites and email, so this is a really big concession to turn it over to wordpress.com.

I’ve also been really busy with Mixwit and made a point of not working on any other projects during my Y-Combinator incubation period. VJTV (vj.tv) will also be re-emerging and public this week.
