Flash This is more of a note to myself:
I used my friend’s SCORM conformant Flash template that he created in late 2005/early 2006. He stopped using it in a SCORM LMS and then added the code to prevent the ActiveX control from appearing in IE. I started a project last year with it and just got the files back “assuming” that I could plop it into my LMS. Unfortunately, the version of flashObject (1.3.c) he used since moving away from the LMS blocked the setValue calls from the Flash movie so it wouldn’t pass the score. It wasn’t until my other colleague recommended I use a newer version of flashObject, swfObject 1.4.4, that it worked.
End nerd talk now.

Creative,
Flash,
Random Pendleton Ward is possibly one of the most creative/imaginative artists I’ve seen on the internet. I wish I had thought of this movie.

Flash Yes, the software I use every day and have used everyday for almost 9 years, turned 10. I’m sure Word and Excel are older, but, how many tools let you make a game featuring boxing presedential candidates OR watch a web video on YouTube? Yes, thanks to Flash, I not only can do my job, but can also be inandated with animating ads. Punch the Monkey!

Flash,
Random Not that anyone cares about my personal opinions on Macromedia/Adobe Flash, but, I am not happy with Flash 8 on my Mac. I’ve used Flash since version 2 and have never had too much of a problem with it. Right now, I’m really disappointed in its performance on a G4 15″ laptop (1.2 GHz, 512MB). It’s very unresponsive to shortcut keys and everything seems to lag. I went back to MX2004 and was surprised at how springy it seems in comparison.
Of course, nothing will seem as fast as Flash 5 on OS 9…but hey, I can hope.

Flash Thanks to Bill for sending me this link on how to fix the Flash error that every IE user will have in a few weeks.

Flash,
Media If you’re not a nerd, read no further.
An article I wrote based on batch processing videos into Flash Video (flv) files on a Mac. It’s just a plain html doc…no fancy formatting (yet).
