Flash and Flex are Adobe's "Winning Combo," Says Jesse Randall Warden at 'Real-World Flex'

Flex bridges the skill gap between artists and programmers

Aug. 14, 2006 03:00 PM

"Geeks mingled with suits; some of the geeks IN suits." That, according to 'Real-World Flex' speaker Jesse Randall Warden, was what greeted him when he arrived in New York City's Roosevelt Hotel this morning ready to give his own session at the event, a session called "Flash and Flex - A Winning Combo."

Warden, a Senior Consultant with Universal Mind who specializes in Flex, Flash, & Flash Lite Development, has been incredibly busy lately:

"While everyone was celebrating the 10-year birthday of Flash for the last couple weeks, I was busy using it."

"Hopefully in the next couple of months," Warden notes, "I can start using Flex 2 professionally. Don't get me wrong, I'll always love the speed of development AS2 can give you, but Flex 2 apps are more fun right now because it's so fresh and new."

His talk was one of the fastest-moving of the One-Day 'Real-World Flex' Seminar, and much enjoyed by all.
