Projects - Flex Builder


OK, it seems I have a moment to do something more creative than site maintainence! I've already downloaded and installed the trial version of Flex Builder, so I'm going to work my way through some Flex Builder Tutorials (I'll start with the ones at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/quickstart). I'll publish the applications here as I do them, and hopefully I'll manage to write some explanations about each application as well. All apps here are constructed in Flex Builder 3.
