Update: Here are Mike Chambers’ thoughts on the issue…
I thought it was a bad April fool’s joke at first, but it’s not April. It’s true, Adobe is laying off 8% of their global workforce, which is about 600 employees. More details will be available on Dec 16th during their regular earnings conference call. The full [...]

This is in response to Ryan Stewart’s post: The Open Web Is Slow.
Thanks for the post Ryan. I agree with much of what you are saying and as a non-Adobe employee, I definitely agree that Adobe does better-than-most commercial companies at contributing and fostering the open source community. In-fact, the Flash community, by and large, [...]
Well, we’re basically always hiring (so apply even if this ad goes away), but given that the OSFlash Job Board just had a relaunch, we thought we’d try our luck at using it.
Here’s the contents of the job posting:

I stumbled across a site today by Jamie Zawinski that randomly pulls various images from the web blindly (I do not know the workings of the algorithm) and throws them together every 60 seconds or so into a collage. If any of the images spark your interest, simply click on it to go to the [...]
The first one was hilarious:
The new one is good too:

Back in May 2007, I posted about Flash and UML. I mentioned Saffron in the post and Samuel Agesilas (author of Saffron) posted a comment saying, “I’m honored that you would like to be on the private alpha. I most certainly can put you on that list. I will email you all of the info,” [...]
It seems like every year, I hear posts about Flash on the Beach, being the ‘best conference ever‘ in one form or another. I have always dreamed of attending a Flash on the Beach conference and this year, I finally get to! My only let downs will be that Phlash5 will not be performing and [...]
I live and work in Spokane, Washington, USA. Recently, I’ve been dreaming of having a SFPUG (Spokane Flash Platform User Group); but after trying hard to hire some good Flash developers for my current employer (DigiDeal), I was convinced that all of the good Flash developers in my somewhat-smaller-city were already working with me…
And then, [...]
I’ve never seen anything like it before in my life. It’s a large scale internet revolt. In-case you haven’t yet heard, the hex code to break the HD-DVD encryption was publicized on wikipedia and digg (among other various places). Both places removed it. The result? Check out Digg’s home page as of about five minutes [...]
