Speaking at 360Flex: Making Bling with Flex
I’m speaking at 360Flex next week, Feburary 25th at 4:00 pm. My topic is officially called “Big and Famous: How to Succeed as an Independent Developer”. My topic will cover:
- Why and how to become an independent developer
- Why and how to make money
- Why and how to build your personal brand
- Why and how to use Flex to make it all happen
I chose my topic for a few reasons. First, when I started working for myself, I knew jack, and had no one to help me. I flailed and failed on my first attempt. I don’t feel others should have to go through what I did. Secondly, the Flex market has gotten to the point where all the popular topics are taken; I need something unique, yet I feel represents me. Finally, I like speaking about a subject that will help others succeed.
Hope to see you there!

Flash CS3 Components in a Flex ActionScript Project
I am a bottleneck at work. It’s made worse by the fact that 30% of my day is spent coding. The rest is working with co-workers on implementation details for projects and working project managers on time estimations & resource allocations. So, even the 30% of my day that I do get to code is fraught with distractions. Telecommuting has helped some since those days, I can focus more, but not much.
