Quick intro and Adobe AIR fun

2 comments Posted by: Tom

As my first post, I'd like to introduce myself as the newest member of AsFusion! Laura and I have been friends and classmates for years and I'm excited to be joining Nahuel and Laura as they take AsFusion to the next level. I'm not a Flex or CF developer, but I'll be helping them manage their projects and posting regularly to the blog to keep you apprised of all the latest and greatest going on here! 

Laura and I just came back from the Adobe on AIR Bus Tour when they stopped in LA.  Adobe is promoting their Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR), formerly known as Apollo, which is in Beta right now and the 1st release is expected soon.  For those who aren't familiar with AIR, it's technology to allow you to deploy rich internet applications to the desktop.  To give you an idea of the kinds of fun stuff you can do, I shot a clip of a great demo by Lee Brimelow:

 

It was my first time at an event and it was great to meet Ted Patrick, and so many of you in our community.  Which reminds me, we are all signed up and ready for Adobe MAX 2007 in Chicago this October, so we hope to see you there!  We have a lot of exciting things planned, so stay tuned!

I'm glad you joined to help up Nahuel and Laura.
Cool demo from Lee Brimelow, thanks Tom!

Great for it ability but also its hunger for resources. I'm curious how much ram such a deployment will take.
