I would love to hook this up to MXNA.
If you have already visited my blog since last night, then you have probably already noticed, but I have given my weblog a (much needed) face-lift.
I put in a completely new design, and updated some of the code for the sidebar. The design is based on a WordPress template put together by Marcos Sader, which I converter to Moveable Type and tweaked to my liking.
I also added some new code / sections on the sidebar nav. You can now view my last 10 delicious posts, as well as all of my podcasts (thus far, only one). Both of the sidebars are automatically updated using a combination of PHP, and MoveableType Plugins.
Jennifer Larkin is heading up a push to create a Flex user group in the San Francisco Bay area. If you are in the area and interested in participating or helping out, check out her site, or join the mailing list she has set up.

Darron Schall has put up a quick and useful post showing how to use XML namespaces via E4X in ActionScript 3.
E4X is an ECMA standard for working with an manipulating XML, and is the primary way to work with XML within ActionScript 3.

Just a quick fyi, but if you want to get a quick overview of the new features and APIs availabilities in ActionScript 3 and Flash Player 8.5, check out this page on labs which lists all of the new ActionScript 3 features.
My personal favorite? E4X support.
Well, since all of the other teams have been blogging their open positions, I figured I’d better blog some for the Apollo team before everyone gets hired.
So, here are a couple I found on the Adobe jobs site (hint, search for “Universal”, as in “universal client (hint hint, keywords are case-sensitive)).

As I mentioned last week, I decided to start up a new podcast. Christian and I had done a couple of podcasts together last year, but as they took too much time to produce, we ended up not having time to do very many. My podcast will be a little less polished, but hopefully I will be able to do them a little more consistently.
I have just uploaded the first podcast.
Just a heads up but I am going to be attending the following conferences in the next couple of weeks:
FITC Toronto April 21 - 23 (with xbox in tow ;)
Ajax experience San Francisco May 10 - 12th
Im helping out with the keynote and doing a platform panel at FITC in Toronto, and will just be catching sessions at the Ajax experience. If you are going to be at either conference make sure to ping me before hand or find me at the conference.
