AIR for Android: Expanded View of “StudyShuffler”
I mentioned before that while most people in the AIR for Android prerelease program are porting their iPhone applications over from Packager for iPhone projects to AIR for Android, I’ve been working more or less from scratch on my projects.

HTML5 and the Flash Platform – A Call for Sanity
A strange thing has been happening over the past year or so.
