As I wrote in an early post about the FITC Conference, there were several speakers invited to hold different sessions. But one in particular caught my attention.

The presentation about Gaia Framework, an open-source front-end Flash Framework for AS3 and AS2. The introductory was held by the creator Steven Sacks.

Because I am part of those who couldn’t get to this event I thought that this video will make it up.There are a bunch of useful things to learn from it so relax in your chair and enjoy.

There are some desktop applications that in time I find out they can be very useful tools. One of them in my opinion is Snackr, an AIR app built using Adobe Flex 3 and Adobe AIR 1.0. So, for this week I found a 5 min video review for this tool that will give you a better look of how it works.

Snackr is a RSS ticker that pulls random items from your feeds and scrolls them across your desktop. It keeps you up to date in an easy way.

Searching some interesting stuff for the Weekly Video section I came up on this tutorial video in wich Ty Voliter, a developer on the Adobe Flash Catalyst Team, demonstrates how to use states and the timelines panel to build an introductory animation in your Flash Catalyst project. The animation will play right when the application loads in the browser.

This video is one of the Adobe Developer Connection series and it’s very explicit. For further details about Flash Catalyst check the Adobe Labs site.

Because lately we were in topics about the new releases from Adobe, we decided to stick with this subject also in the weekly video section. So for today we chose a video from Adobe Developer Connection, in which Tim Buntel (Adobe Product Manager) demonstrates how to enable paging large record-sets automatically with Flash Builder 4 and ColdFusion, and how the new network monitor can analyze network traffic.

For today’s Weekly Video section I selected the Columbia Adobe User Group meeting where Greg Lunn discusses about the not so new beta releases from Adobe. It’s worth checking it especially for those of you who aren’t so familiar with Flash Catalyst, Flash Builder and Flex framework. Take your time for a 40 minutes video that will help you understand how these products work.
