I will be at Yahoo Hack Day today (with Ted Patrick). Ill be working on an Apollo app, so if you want to say hi, or check out Apollo just find me or ping me online.
My YIM is mesh.rm.
Yahoo has launched a Developer Center for Flash Developers. The center includes tutorials and examples of how to leverage Yahoo APIs from Flash (ActionScript 2 and 3, and Flex).
You can view the center here.
As you may have noticed, there are quite a few conferences coming up this fall with sessions on Apollo. To help create track of these and other Apollo sessions, I have create a public Google Calendar which I will update to include all public sessions, user group meetings, etc on Apollo.
Here are the links:
If you know of any sessions / conferences that I missed, or if you are planning a user group or other meeting about Apollo, make sure to send me an email (mesh@adobe.com) so I can add it to the calendar.

Just a quick fyi, but I have a bunch of stuff going on right now (everything is cool), so I am going to be hard to reach for the next couple of days. I will try to keep up with emails, but it may take me a while to get back to you.
Btw, this post is retroactive to last Sunday. I should be back up to speed sometime next week.
Just a quick fyi, but the Apollo session that I am doing in a couple of weeks at FlashForward Austin has been moved from Thursday to Tuesday (right after the keynote).
You can find the listing here, as well as view the entire conference schedule here.
It looks like this is shaping up to be another classic FlashForward, so if you haven’t registered yet, hurry and do so before it is too late.
Christian Cantrell is also doing a session on Apollo, so there is pleny of Apollo love to go around.
Mike Potter has written an article showing how to get started with using Flex 2 with AMFPHP.
You can read the entire article here.
This weeks podcast includes an update on Apollo, Fall conferences discussing Apollo, and ActionScript / JavaScript performance numbers.

This guide shows how to specify which format screenshots are captured in in OS X. It appears to only work with keyboard shortcuts, and not Grab, but if you are like me, and need to quickly send screenshots around (and TIFF won’t do), then this is very helpful.
This is mostly for future reference for myself.
Andrew Shorten will be presenting on Apollo tonight at the London Flash Platform User Group meeting.
Andrew will be giving an update on Apollo (and maybe a demo or two) as well as answering questions.
