Tower Of Power

I apologize about the month without updates. Our business manager and lead designer ("Director of Operations" and "Creative Director") both had to go to the hospital at about the same time and the shortest stay was almost 2 weeks. They both pulled through just fine and everything is back to normal.

I hope to be back sometime later this week with some visible signs of awesomeness on a side project of mine.

In the mean time I've been playing with Flex Builder 3 (hooray for free Educational licenses) and while it's cool, so far the documentation is hindering my development efforts. I have a project planned where I intend to have an AIR client and am evaluating using Flex instead of HTML+JavaScript. We'll see how far that goes.

And finally I've been playing around with FriendFeed and have an account setup. I, for one, welcome our new stalker overlords.

I'm currently out for the weekend, brother's graduated high school!

When I get back I've got some updates for the hierarchical data post, and should have a post ready on using rsync and phing for remote deployment.
