Agenda
It’s the first half of 2011 and Adobe’s Open Screen Project initiative has started to really gather some momentum. From a vision of grandeur to the assimilation of a number of different devices and form factors, the Open Screen Project is well on it’s way to becoming a fully realized reality. From Windows, Mac, Linux, to Android, QNX, iOS, and WebOS Adobe has significantly increased the audience consuming ActionScript-based applications on devices from Desktop, web, tablet, mobile, and TV. Come hear how this initiative looks from the eyes of your peers, fellow ActionScript and Flex developers. Gain some insight on how to ride this multi-screen wave of the future.
I realized this morning that I have yet to write about the various sessions I’ll be doing during Adobe MAX in Los Angeles this year. Normally, I begin advertising these sessions much earlier… ah well. Here they are!
Adobe MAX - "From Desktop to Mobile: Application Functionality for Small Screens"
Adobe MAX 2011 From Desktop to Mobile: Application Functionality for Small Screens
Tuesday, 4:00-5:00
Explore the issues of moving an established RIA experience from desktop to mobile. Join Joseph Labrecque from the University of Denver as he discusses transitioning the viewing experience for a campus resource from desktop to mobile. This session will examine how to take advantage of new workflow considerations across Adobe toolsets and determine what existing functionality is suitable for mobile applications, investigate device restrictions that can impact the general user experience, and describe how to make users aware of a new mobile application and what to expect.
Adobe Education Summit - "From Desktop to Mobile: Application Functionality for Small Screens (condensed)"
Adobe Education Summit From Desktop to Mobile: Application Functionality for Small Screens
Sunday, 2:15-2:50?
(This is a condensed version of my official MAX session)
FITC - "UX Concerns across Mobile Platforms"
FITC Unconference UX Concerns across Mobile Platforms
Tuesday, 12:00-12:30
All three major mobile OS platforms have certain user experience expectations in place. This session will examine existing UX paradigms for Android, iOS, and QNX, the importance of adhering to user expectations through these constructs, and present some circumstances when deviation may be appropriate.
Distilled data feed from the Adobe XML News Aggregator!
Pulls relevant data feeds from the Adobe XML News Aggregator (AXNA) at http://feeds.adobe.com/ – an invaluable community resource. This data is distilled into smart categories and present to the user for easy perusal.
I’ve gotten a lot of great info from AXNA – and I’m sure many other souls have gained great knowledge from this resource as well. in creating a demonstration for an upcoming set of lessons on Flash Builder and Flex, I began to see the benefit of making this application available to the community at large.
I do plan on making the source for this available, and also to distribute the app to other platforms aside from Android. This is beta (a few hours work) – but it is a good start.
Adrian Pomilio interviews Joseph Labrecque at 360|Flex in Denver, CO – April 2011.
I was interviewed for the Runtime Expectations internet radio show while at 360|Flex in Denver. It was great chatting with Adrian and we touched upon many subjects over the course of the interview. Some of the topics discussed during the interview include: music composition, book and tutorial authoring, the AEL and ACP programs with Adobe, mobile development, teaching technical subjects, and the sad state of tech journalism.
What is Runtime Expectations? Join Ben Farrell, Adrian Pomilio, and Bucky Schwarz as they broadcast live from Cuban Revolution in downtown Durham, NC with a beer in one hand and a mic in the other. They’ll be covering all the aspects of software development that compel them to put a beer in that first hand. Shows feature both live guests and call-ins.
