Not to steal any of the thunder from the recent Flash Lite 2 BREW announcement, but I thought this might be of interest … not to worry, I have quite a few Flash Lite 2 posts I’ll make shortly! I just feel like this should be blogged. Those of you who might accuse me of [...]

Not all blogs support (dynamic) resizing of posted images … and let’s face it, loading up Photoshop or Fireworks just to resize an image or two is overkill (not to mention kind of silly in my opinion). What you say? I’ll just be lazy and scale the original image(s) in HTML within a post? Bad [...]

Hayden Porter ran across this listing of PSP flash content at PSPupdates.qj.net. It looks like he may have stumbled onto the very first unofficial PSP Flash content aggregator. I’m fairly sure we’ll hear more about PSP content aggregation from others, soon.

I had the urge to stop at a Memorial Day weekend yard sale this morning on the way to get some gardening supplies. Good thing I did. Yard sales are always a bit of a gamble, but this one looked like a good bet … lots of knick-knacks. Imagine my surprise when I found a [...]

I just received the clix today. I whipped up a quick $version test, and it’s coming back FL 7,1,51,0. So, yes, looks like Flash Lite 2 (in some form or another) is preinstalled. The UI lag everyone was complaining about on the u10 (FL 1.1) is pretty much non-existent with the clix. You can tell [...]

OK, so occasionally, I’ll post a gadget or device that isn’t Flash enabled. But before you jump down my throat, check this little interactive bunny out. What’z up, doc?! Ok, ok, it’s a little bit on the “cutsey” side of things, but the Nabaztag looks like a bit of fun compared to the ambient orb [...]

I just caught this off the momoboston site … mobile entertainment is the focus for the upcoming June 5, 2006 meeting. Mobile Entertainment is the topic!? … but, what, no Flash Lite? COME ON! Guess the Flash Lite crowd in Boston will have to represent. Oh, yes, supposedly, it will be streamed.
