Play: Rediscovering Fun
Hack it! Mash it up… Mix your JSON with your XML with your Flash Remoting. Suck up that API. Put it on your phone. Throw it on your Wii. Break it. Fix it. Play! Have fun!
Aral Balkan loosens his collar and goes barefoot to share his recent experiences in rediscovering the joys of Flash. Expect APIs, some spaghetti code and maybe even a few devices.
You need Flash Player 8 to view this presentation.
