I just got back from seeing Ben Forta’s sneak peek session on Scorpio in Brussels — and I can honestly say it rocks! Believe we were the first over in Europe to publicly see the demo’s and there’s some very very exciting stuff in there. I won’t spoil the fun by revealing everything we saw read more

This whole web 2.0 phenomena sure brings out some cool services — with all the beta’s you can sign up for these days I’ve become pretty selective which ones I subscribe to, just to make sure I do get a couple of hours of work done.

Got in in time for the first session of the day, seeing Geoff Stearns (of SWFObject fame) talk about best practices for Flash in a Web 2.0 world.

Started out today with an *excellent* session by Mike Jones on Flex components, some great in depth tips and tricks that I’ll be using day in day out.
