Any pointers on great Flash MX sites for newbies? From a developer perspective?
Update: You can download a fully functional trial edition (expires after 15 days) from Macromedia. It comes with a full set of tutorials to get you started. The environment kinda reminds me of VB and Paradox for Windows.
moock.org’s blog is a weblog by the author of O’Reilly’s “ActionScript for Flash MX: The Definitive Guide”. A book I am digging into. Very well written and easy to follow.
To “Turn Java into a first-class citizen of the Mozilla/XUL platform. This will enable developers to build applications where a Java backend can be used to interact with a Mozilla/XUL front-end, combining the power of Java’s server libraries with the interactivity and user interface capabilities of Mozilla.” Looks like a project to watch.

Livejournal users are taking over the Technorati Top 100.
Contrast that to what Shelley finds surfing the weblogs.com list.
Prediction: AOL bloggers will own lists that rely solely on linkage to determine popularity soon.
Update 7/24/2003: Looks like LiveJournal users are now all over weblogs.com!
Philadelphia Inquirer: Howard Tate: He was lost, but now is found: An inspirational piece on a 60s blues musician who lost it all and is finding redemption. A must read. It’s a missed opportunity that there aren’t links to purchase a CD from him at the site. Off to Amazon I go.
Builder.com: Customize error logging with the Logging API: An intro to the 1.4 SDK provided Logging API.
A great overview of jEdit and some of its more popular plugins.
Speaking of IDE’s, Martin Perez shares some Eclipse resources.
