Wow... what an exhilarating experience, teaching five different courses in as many days! I loved every minute of it and had a great time. And apparently so did my students. Here are some of the wonderful comments I received from them:

"Amazing!"
"Your AS3 course was amazing. Very informative, with great explanations. I got much more than I expected out of the lesson and will highly recommend this class!"
"Once again, I absolutely loved this class. I'm very glad I was here for this!"

I'm off to London in a few minutes where I'll be staying for the whole of next week as I teach my new series of Hot Shots seminars. I'm going to be teaching five, one-day seminars during the week (and I can't even begin to imagine how dead I'm going to be at the end of it!) :) We've got thirty people signed up for the courses, which isn't too shabby at all, especially considering that it's the first time I'm running them and I only announced it last month!

Also, Peter Hall called me -- he's apparently in town and I'm hoping to see him (and perhaps even Grant) tonight and give him grief about not updating his blog :) He's such a Bostoner now... dude, come home!

I'm heading out to London this afternoon to attend an Adobe launch party to celebrate the new Creative Suite Production Studio and the coming together of Macromedia and Adobe. Looking forward to meeting and hanging out with the Adobe crew and catching up with some of the 'ol MM gang. AFAIK, Grant's going to be there (he's in London to teach his course) and also Tink, Guy and Stewart. Wow, it's really starting to sink in that's it's Adobe from now on, not Macromedia. Still feels strange to say things like Adobe Flex and Adobe Flash though. I'm sure it'll start to feel more natural in time :)
