Adobe's Christophe Coenraets: "Flex Can Transform the User Experience on the Web"

Adobe is Changing Both the User Experience and the Developer Experience

Aug. 14, 2006 12:00 PM

Working, as he does uniquely well at conference after conference, with live demos and no offline safety-net, Adobe's senior technology evangelist Christophe Coenraets (pictured) delivered his session "Extending AJAX with Flex" to an audience of completely enraptured developers, architects, and IT managers in the Grand Ballroom of The Roosevelt Hotel in New York City at SYS-CON Events' "Real-World Flex" One-Day Seminar.

The title could equally well have been "How Flex Can Transform the User Experience on the Web," Coenraets noted - since they are really two different ways of saying the same thing.)

After starting with use cases involving Flickr, Yahoo! Finance, and Google Maps, Coenraets segued into the world of enterprise apps and demo'd a charting app.
