360Flex 2011 – Flextras Autocomplete Component Giveaway

March 15, 2011 By John

We love doing things that support our sponsors. We hate that so many events have a weird buyer and seller relationship with sponsors. Sponsors are partners, and Flextras, is always fun to work with, especially as another small start up like us! We did this last month and a few lucky registrants got free components, you can too!

They’ve decided to give away some copies of their Flex Calendar Component to a few lucky 360|Flex Denver attendees. To enter, just order a ticket to 360|Flex anytime, tomorrow, Wednesday March 16th. If you do that, you’ll be eligible for the unlimited domain edition of the Flextras Calendar Component.

The Flextras Calendar was built for extensibility, so you can create Renderers to do anything you want inside the Calendar’s days. They recently rebuilt their MX renderers as native Spark Components, so check out some of those samples and source code by downloading their free developer editions.

Jeffry Houser, the brains behind Flextras, will be talking about building components in MX, Spark, and for Mobile during his 360|Flex presentation.

360Flex 2011 – Who SHOULD NOT Come

March 3, 2011 By John

So we’ve done “who should come” posts before, and they definitely apply to every 360|Flex. I thought I’d take a minute to point out who shouldn’t come to 360|Flex 2011.

You shouldn’t come to 360|Flex if…

You’re “so busy” you don’t need to learn anything new or meet anyone new.
You don’t want to establish and build a network of awesome colleagues that could land you your next gig
You’re such an expert with Flex, AIR, AIR for Android, and RIA in general that surely there’s nothing anyone else can teach you.
you’re so awesome at Rock Band, playing has just gotten old to you. :)
You have no interest in the latest and greatest announcement from Adobe, RIM, Intel, and more
You’d rather spend 4 days at home not enjoying the great Denver weather and being surrounded by crazy smart people
You’d rather spend more money on another event with fewer sessions, fewer speakers and far less ‘awesome’

Can you think of any i missed?

360Flex 2011 – Adobe Sessions announced

February 23, 2011 By John

I literally had to fly to San Jose, find Deep and pull her out of a meeting about Flex 5 to get this info, but I knew everyone would want to know what Adobe is planning to present at 360|Flex 2011 :)

So go check out the schedule page, I’ve updated the session details doc, and the schedule pdf, and of course the HTML version :)

See you in Denver!

Go register!
