In previous years, I'd like to think that we illuminated many ideas around software architecture as it would apply to Rich Internet Applications, through presenting and contributing around the Cairngorm... http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/acmax_on_archit.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/acmax_on_archit.html Wed, 13 Aug 2008 18:09:10 +0000 As I hope you've seen on Alistair's blogpost, the team at Adobe Consulting are delighted to have the Cairngorm project promoted to a first-class citizen at opensource.adobe.com.  In this blog post, I'd like to provide a bit more detail of our motivations and intentions as we start thinking about Cairngorm 3.0, and invite your thoughts as to how you would like to see us govern the project.  Adobe Consulting has never been more committed to the Cairngorm project, and continues to deliver innovative solutions upon Cairngorm to customers the world over -- the fact that we've been open-source since 2004... http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/cairngorm_3_-_a.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/cairngorm_3_-_a.html Wed, 06 Aug 2008 13:00:15 +0000 http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/innovative_mash.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/innovative_mash.html Tue, 05 Aug 2008 12:25:43 +0000 http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/acmax2008_on_ag_1.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/acmax2008_on_ag_1.html Fri, 01 Aug 2008 11:56:10 +0000 http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_de.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_de.html Thu, 31 Jul 2008 11:25:03 +0000 Peter Martin (Adobe Consulting, Edinburgh) and Eric Garza (Adobe Consulting, San Francisco) are both key members of the Adobe Consulting architect community who together have been responsible for leveraging many of the same patterns and practices across wildly different projects, whether they be financial services, manufacturing, military or healthcare projects.  Fundamental to all of their projects, have been underlying implementations based upon the Cairngorm architecture, and along the way the teams they participate in have had to face many of the same challenges that you are facing on your projects.  Have you ever asked yourself: "How might I use... http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_ri.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_ri.html Wed, 30 Jul 2008 15:12:35 +0000 http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_te.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_te.html Tue, 29 Jul 2008 10:47:30 +0000 http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_la.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/07/acmax2008_on_la.html Mon, 28 Jul 2008 12:54:59 +0000 I'm delighted that this year, Adobe Consulting has been given our own dedicated track at MAX 2008 where our consultants can share presentations that leverage our learnings of the last year delivering Enterprise and Dynamic Media projects on behalf of Adobe Customers.  Next week, I'll post a talk-by-talk breakdown of each of our talks, but for now, let me introduce the sessions and the speakers, to get you thinking about signing up for MAX 2008 and signing up for some of our talks.

In a previous post, I talked about some of the disruptions that are occuring in the car/auto insurance marketplace, with comparison websites commoditising those who choose to deal directly with their customers online.  And at the same time, as more and more of these comparision websites emerge and commoditise the very experience they had built upon insurance products, I asked whether perhaps there was an opportunity to gain ground by differentiating on the customer-centricity of the quote and buy insurance experience, and... http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/06/user_experience_3.html http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/06/user_experience_3.html User Experience Design Wed, 04 Jun 2008 11:34:13 +0000
