So I just finished Fresh Dialogue 2, and I�ve learned something from each one of the interviews:
Kevin Lyons: Are you a vernacular designer? Are you challenging or adding to your (sub)culture or are you just be influenced by it and creating within it.
one9ine: Personal work pays off.
reVerb: Research plays a more important roll than it is often given. Throw out statistical research, and start learning by asking.

I just installed Flash MX, and I�m loving it. The dockable panels and pre-configured panel sets are great. The new ActionScript objects are of course even better. I opened up the Flash 5 file I�ve been working on lately, and was instantly more productive. The ActionScript editor has an awesome code cleanup function and syntax checker. I can�t really list everything�trust me, it�s great.
The other exciting thing is the video capabilities. You can even integrate the users webcam or microphone, which is crazy. Flash is going to be quickly replacing Real Video soon; it actually uses a Sorenson codec inside of the player.
So go ahead: Get the Flash 6 Plugin.

The new version of TCUP will be done this weekend, and online early next week. If you want to beta test it for me, let me know.
