Adobe Launches Photoshop Express Public Beta

Adobe announced Adobe Photoshop Express public beta, a free Rich
Internet Application (RIA) available to anyone who wants to store, sort
and show off digital photos with eye-catching effects. During the public
beta period, Adobe will solicit Photoshop Express user feedback on
product features and functionality, which will continue to evolve over
time. As the newest addition to the Photoshop family line, Photoshop
Express has taken much of Adobe’s best image editing technology and made
it simple and accessible to a new online audience. Photoshop Express
allows users to store up to 2 gigabytes of images online for free, make
edits to their photos, and share them online in creative ways, including
downloading and uploading photos from popular social networking sites
like Facebook.

Adobe Online Developer Week 2008

Join internationally renowned ActionScript expert Colin Moock for an intensive full day of ActionScript 3.0 training at Bangalore.

Adobe is hosting a free ActionScript 3.0 tour with Colin Moock. We’ll be
hitting 10 cities around the world beginning the end of Oct. More
details are available on the site at: www.adobeas3tour.com. (Note: final
dates are still tbd for many of the cities, but this years schedule is
available.) Registration is required.

This is a great opportunity for our Flash and Flex customers to learn
AS3 from the man himself.

Adobe Presents – Colin Moock’s ActionScript 3.0: From the Ground Up Tour
Join internationally renowned ActionScript expert Colin Moock for an
intensive full day of ActionScript 3.0 training.

Based on Moock’s best-selling Essential ActionScript 3.0 (O’Reilly,
2007), this one-day event covers everything you need to get started
programming in ActionScript 3.0.

Topics include object-oriented programming, classes, objects, variables,
methods, packages, conditionals, loops, operators, functions, error
handling, event handling, display programming, compiling, and running
programs.

Who should attend?
This course is targeted at Flash users with beginner to intermediate
programming skills.  Those completely new to ActionScript are welcome to
attend, but may feel overwhelmed by the quantity of information in the
course.

This course does not cover expert-level topics. Advanced ActionScript
3.0 programmers are unlikely to encounter new concepts, but are welcome
to attend for a refresher on ActionScript programming fundamentals.
