Happy to report that two of the applications I ported to the BlackBerry PlayBook have been approved! Granted, it took almost 6 weeks for approval to take place, but this should give a little more hope to those developers who haven’t heard anything from RIM since submitting to AppWorld. Especially those aiming to get a

Thrilled to announce that I will be speaking in the mobile track for the upcoming Designer/Developer/Mobile Workflow Conference (D2WC)!

Significant representation from Denver, the existing AEL community, and more than a few contributors to Emergent Collective One are on the list. Very happy

Like a lot of Flex developers out there, I went through the trouble to author and submit a session proposal for what is probably the premiere Flex conference on the planet: 360|Flex. Earlier today, I learned that my session proposal was rejected. While I would have been quite happy had my proposal been accepted, I
