Happy Birthday Flex
Flex celebrates its 1st birthday today. I think we've done pretty well for a V1 product and are working hard on the next generation. David Mendels mentioned in our celebration today that you see a huge amount of growth in children between the ages of 1 and 2; we're hoping we can see the same amount of growth in "our baby" :-)
Thanks to all who have participated in making Flex what it is and what it will be!

Macromedia Training Is Great!
Check out this post by Steven Erat on the Flex for ColdFusion Developers course he took recently. These kinds of courses are offered all the time and all over; very worthwhile to rapidly increase your skills or if you're trying to find out if Flex can really suit your needs .
