Got My Singularity Ticket

Singularity

Tickets for the Singularity global web conference are now on sale. The dates of the conference are October 24-26th 2008. I bought mine a couple of days ago for $99 USD, which is the early-bird price (until the end of August). After conversion this worked out to be £51, which I thought was pretty reasonable.

Well done to Aral for getting the website up and running using Google App Engine. And a big thanks for getting together a great speaker line-up.

Colin Moock talks to Jim Corbett (Flash Player Engineer)

July 18th, 2008 by Adrian Parr

Jim Corbett

This morning I finally got around to watching an interview Colin Moock did with Jim Corbett back at Flash In The Can 2008 in Toronto. Jim is one of the software engineers working at Adobe on the Flash Player. The interview is 50 minutes long and has some interesting insights in to the Flash Player, the history and culture of the team behind it and they discuss current and possible future directions the Flash Player will take.

Watch the video here.
