Web 2.0: Step Outside the Box - Part I
|
Topic:
It's becoming ever more difficult to browse the Internet without seeing talk about Web 2.0 and seeing it's applications. Google and Yahoo are
just two of the many companies who have released their implementation of this "new technology". However, Web 2.0 is much more than a way for HTML
pages to communicate with the server and drag things around on the page. Web 2.0 is really about the use and interoperability of existing web technologies to produce richer, desktop-like experiences for web users. In my two part presentation series, Web 2.0: Step Outside the Box, I will show you how Flash can play a role in this new paradigm. Part I of this series will show you how Flash can communicate with client-side JavaScript to affect the browser's Document Object model (DOM).
Bio:
Artist, writer, and director. The web is my canvas, the technologies I use are my tools, and the applications I create are my works of art. I'm doing what I love and love what I 'm doing.
I am currently a Senior Web Developer and Instructor of technologies such as; ColdFusion, Flex, Flash, and SQL. I have been programming for over 20 years and was introduced to ColdFusion and Flash back in 1999. Since the pre-release of Flex 2.0 I've begun to spread the "Good News" about Flex and Flex development. Since then, I have never looked back.
Currently I am seeking to create the perfect synergy between the various web technologies such as ColdFusion (server), Flex/Flash (client), and SQL (model).
