If you're at CFUnited, swing by Potomac A on Friday at 5:30pm for our Birds of a Feather session: FW/1 (Framework One) is a relatively new framework but rapidly gaining mindshare. It's designed to be simple to use, just like ColdFusion itself! Come to this session and hear how people are using FW/1 in production and what's coming in version 2.0. We'll discuss best practices, look pragmatically at migrating legacy applications to FW/1 and gather all your feedback for 2.0 and beyond. We might even talk about DI/1, the extremely lightweight dependency injection / inversion of control framework that will (translate)

Well, okay, so I don't know that the title of this post is strictly true: you may be able to run the Adobe Updater even if you're not logged into Windows as a user with administrative rights--but I don't know how you launch Adobe Updater other than from the Help menu of an Adobe product and the point I'm really making in this post is that if you aren't logged into Windows with administrative rights, you either won't have the menu option "Check for Updates" (this was the behavior I observed in Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader) or the menu (translate)

If you’ve been into a Verizon Store recently (in the US), take a look at some promo materials for DROIDX that may be in store. I found a sellsheet that listed Flash 10.x as a feature of “How DROID X wins”. Pretty cool, even if 2.2 hasn’t quite hit the device yet via OTA update [...] (translate)

DROID Life had a posting today demoing Flash Video on a DROID Incredible. They (aka VZW) haven’t begun rolling it out officially (although it’s rumored to be very “soon-ish”), but you can get an idea of what to expect (with Flash Video performance) when you get it. (translate)

Create your own vector avatar with Illustrator

I don’t consider myself an “artist” as I’ve never had any formal drawing training (for the record, my background is more in corporate identity and layout – you know, lots of Helvetica and lots of white space). However, I’ve had the opportunity to work and spend time with many talented illustrators over the years. Being I know a thing or two about using Adobe Illustrator, I’ve always been inspired to try to draw things on my own. My daughter recently had to draw a self-portrait for her art class, and the project inspired me to do one on my own. (translate)
