Sending Text Messages with Body Text using AIR for … last year

Sending Text Messages with Body Text using AIR for Android - Hackish Workaround It's been a while since I posted actual code samples here, in part because I have been working with prerelease versions of the software and SDK that are still technically NDA (on that note, if you'd like to get into …

Cool Stuff with the Flash Platform - 2/2/11 last year

This was a crazy busy week in the Flash Platform community with over 30 awesome community posts covered here. I would have had this post ready sooner but for the never-ending stream of snow here in Boston (with no end in sight sadly). In a general interest note, for anyone saddened by the recent …

Cool Stuff with the Flash Platform - 1/18/11 last year

Cool Stuff with the Flash Platform - 1/10/11 last year

Things were relatively quiet over the New Year's break, though we did get some good news out of CES last week including a ton of new devices supporting Flash. It seems there's only one company not supporting Flash on their devices but I forget the details. :) A lot of this week's posts come from …

Cool Stuff with the Flash Platform - 12/30/10 last year

2010 is almost over. It's been a good year for me and I hope it has been for you as well. To everyone in the Flash Platform community, keep up the great work! I failed to include it in last week's update but TJ Downes, Ben Farrell and Vicky Ryder created a new AIR application called Media Slurp …

Cool Stuff with the Flash Platform - 12/22/10 last year

As one might expect, this was a lighter week than usual in the Flash Platform community though you know you have a healthy community when a light week includes over 20 top-notch posts on a variety of topics. I am particularly curious personally about controlling Flash applications using my brain …

Passing Data Across Views in Flex Mobile last year

If you've done any development using Flex "Hero" for mobile (i.e. Android), you already know that you can pass any arbitrary struture of data when you push or pop a View to the ViewStack. I talk a little bit about this topic in an earlier post covering passing data on pop methods (i.e. popView() …
