Webware 100 – c|net top 100 webware voting

Say No to boxed software! The future of applications is online delivery and access. Software is passé. Webware is the new way to get things done.

This voting strikes to a most important thing that is now happening on internet and that’s switching from desktop based to web based enviroment. I really like how powerfull all categories look, with at least two or three strong players and good services to offer, but mostly it’s all offered webwares that are great.

Vote and enjoy the change! Real change!

Interesting MS Surface “game”

Because creator did not allow embeding I must redirect you to the Vimeo to take a look at the interesting “game” made for Microsoft Surface. It’s called Genesis.

this is the quote from the video description

This is a deeper look at the 3D Microsoft Surface application we created recently for SxSW and Mix. Partnering with Microsoft, we designed custom ChromaDepth 3D glasses and distributed them to attendees of both events who wanted to try their hand at collaboratively creating a galaxy from scratch. It was a massive hit on the show floor.

very nice 🙂

Flash Structure Creator – Flash extension panel for automatic folder structure and file creation

Extension panel is driven by xml schema, which can be customized to fit specific project requirements. It automatically creates fla, html, css and javascript files defined in the schema. It also includes swfobject 2.1 and swfaddress 2.2 by default.

Using this extension can effectively streamline new project creation work flow. It only takes a few clicks to achieve which usually takes hours to recreate, duplicate or customize from previous projects.

guys from Another Flash User Group Singapore created this Extension panel for their needs but it can certainly be useful for other Flash people…
