Trevor McCauley gives an overview of creating custom panels in Fireworks, from SWF graphics to JavaScript to having them control the app. (Both JavaScript and Flash can be used to control the various Macromedia Studio tools.)

Ryan Stewart has a meaty two-part interview with Wes Carr of Gtalkr.

Joe Wilcox writes two essays about Microsoft's releases this week, What Office Live Is Not and What Office Live Is.
