The Yahoo! Flex Skin is a lovely minimalist skin by the good folks on Yahoo!'s Flash team. However, it has an issue that you need to work around if you want to load it in dynamically at runtime. It's a simple thing, but I thought I'd document it here in hopes that it will help save someone else a few minutes of confusion.
Update: Beta 2 Released! See the Gaebar Beta 2 announcement.
For my latest project, I decided to bite bullet and go with git and GitHub.
It's a little disconcerting as I'm really comfortable with SVN but a good move nonetheless since that sort of comfort is rarely a good thing (there are many things I wish SVN did differently but I use it because I know it and it's not CVS!)
Please upgrade your Flash Player to install ClippyML
Summary: ClippyML is a simple web browser that uses the system clipboard instead of URLs. Simply paste some text into it to see it displayed as HTML.
Last week, we made a little history when over 70 speakers and 500 attendees from around the world congregated on the Interwebs for the <head> web conference and, in doing so, took part in creating the world's first virtual web conference. Last week, thanks to you, we proved that there is a new model for conferences that is engaging, environmentally-friendly, and affordable.
