Flash is Everywhere

I’ve been noticing that Flash is being integrated in many ways that surprise me every day. Take for example a project I just completed for Yahoo IMV and Ford (Ford Escape CowTipping).

Yahoo Messenger utilizes Flash as an embedded control in their chat environment and it’s very interesting how it’s built and how the communication is handled between chatting friends. Simple and to the point in its approach, it is easily managed in a relatively tight deadline.

I had about a week (give or take a few days) to finish the game and it turned out pretty good.

As another example, last night I installed Google Desktop and was impressed to find that some of the widgets were built in Flash.

Flash is everywhere man, it’s in my shoes.

About Bela Korcsog

Proud father of two children, happy husband to one wife. I've been programming various technologies and leading the development of huge projects for most of the last ten years. I've got some specific likes and dislikes through my experiences in the web site business but generally I'm pretty straightforward about it. Not a huge fan of the latest and greatest shiny toy (it took me four years to show an interest in Flash) I'm more than happy to code in any language that comes along (Actionscript is just so darn fun).
