Flash Video is everywhere, why don’t you learn?

Tuesday, December 13th, 2005 - 7:18 am

Some of the big sites have embraced is as the better way to display video on their site, a way to seamlessly integrate videos without bothering with an external skin. Look at great sites like CNET and Google Video doing it. Why aren’t you, Time of India, doing it? Or are you waiting for …

Has Flash 8 lived up to the hype?

Wednesday, December 7th, 2005 - 12:48 am

How can you compare two distinctively different technologies that serves different purposes of their own? Even their hybrid is even a beautiful result of poetry if crossed and used intelligently.

Skip Intro back with a different Face?

Sunday, December 4th, 2005 - 3:29 am

Blame it on Skip Intro for the Flash 99% Bad name. But honestly, I feel that history is being repeated here. If you look around, you will see bold experiments, wild prototypes done in ActionScript 3.0 and post Flash Player 8, which were not doable in Flash before. I am not trying to point fingers are anybody, nobody at all and the remaining part of this article is purely my presonal speculation.

We’re going on another wild ride with the capabilities of ActionScript, the more powerful it gets, the more crazy and cool things we can do with it. Mimic applications in ActionScript that had already been there with other technologies and in place, just because we can do that in ActionScript is not the really the way I would envision the usage of Flash. According to my opinion, we should remember what happen to Flash when everybody started doing Intros. Aren’t we simulating a similar situation but this time with ActionScript. I would rather stick to doing what is needed for an Application and the reason it should be done in Flash/ActionScript.

Firefox 1.5

Tuesday, November 29th, 2005 - 9:51 pm

Ever since its first release candidate (Firefox RC 1), I have been a big fan of the new improvements in Firefox.

Some of the cool features that I fell in love with;

  • Drag and drop reordering for opened tabs
  • Non-obstructive error message (You can do that with firetune for pre-1.5 versions)
  • Support for Web Standards including SVG (became evident to me with a pepper in my Mint), CSS 2 and CSS 3, and JavaScript 1.6
  • Easier options for the security settings
  • Force links that opens in New Window to open in a new Tab instead

Thanks

Friday, November 25th, 2005 - 6:48 am

I never realize the importance of ThanksGiving untill I experience one myself. I really wanted to write this article on my personal blog but then to push it home, I am having it here as I am targetting more of the technical peoples to extend my virtual Thanks.

I am somewhere in South Pasadena for over a week, living with a family, dinning everyday with them, family shopping for clothes, vegetables and everything else in between, watching movies, mixing both business dinners with family/friend getting-to-know meetings. Experiencing Sushi yet again. I wasn’t that comfortable eating it during my last visit in June this year but now I am beginning to like it. I was surprised when the chief chef at Yoshida recognized me with a Hello, Long Time; No See. Tasted the foods at a Thai Temple (I have forgotten where it was). They have something called “Green Card Lottery”; yes, you can get Green Card through Lottery. Well, they say America is more about foods, merry-making, enjoyment, nice cars, vacations and all the other good stuffs and I am beginning to believe that. The weather in this part of the state is really cool, extremely nice and is really soothing to a person coming from the humid warm weather of Mumbai, India.

Google Analytics’ Flashed

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005 - 9:10 pm

I always believed that Google is more about non-flash and more of XMLHttpRequest. Brajeshwar.com is on Mediatemple, they have urchin for the site stats and I know that Urchin had nothing flashy about them. I use more of Mint to study the statistics but I am sure I will be more on Google Analytics for more details.
