iPhone inspired Flex Toggle Button Component

Made a simple MXML based toggle button component similar to the one on the iPhone. It is pretty easy to use with full skinning support. I was wondering why no one had made this component before, since it seems like a pretty simple yet useful component. Play with it and let me know what you think. I’ll add a Degrafa skinned example soon.

AFCS ( previously Cocomo ) first impressions

Posted by Kristofer Joseph Fri, 20 Mar 2009 23:55:00 GMT

Recently I was charged with the task to delve into Adobe Flash Collaboration Service or AFCS for short. Ever since I started hearing the buzz about Cocomo ( AFCS’s previous code name ) I have been itching to give it a try. I have worked on a few collaborative applications in the past and was curious to see how they solved some of the age old problems that inevitably come up. Before I go any farther though I want to be clear that AFCS is still in BETA ( hence the labs url ) so I nor you should by any means be expecting it to be perfect. Adobe and the AFCS team have given us the treat of getting to play with some cutting edge technology, so in a lot of respects we are able to help out by giving feedback before things get set in stone. OK Enough throat clearing, let me get to it.

First impressions:

The Good

Honestly my first reaction was amazement. I was able to create a very sophisticated application which combined audio, video, chat, and a shared whiteboard in a matter of minutes.
