Why we don't see jabber as an option for real time collaboration apps together with flash? Here are my thoughts on the subject. http://blog.funciton.com/en/2008/08/xmpp_for_real_time_flash_commu.html http://blog.funciton.com/en/2008/08/xmpp_for_real_time_flash_commu.html Flash Flash Media Server Flex Open Source Thu, 07 Aug 2008 12:23:26 -0500 I wrote a cronjob class in actionscript 3 during my flight back to Lima from San Francisco.

I'm using twitter more and more lately. I have configured it to send me updates via im. The other i thought how cool would it be to receive axna updates via im too so i thought what the hell. Why not coding a python script that will ping axna every 5 minutes and send updates to twitter! :) http://blog.funciton.com/en/2007/12/receive_axna_updates_on_im_twi.html http://blog.funciton.com/en/2007/12/receive_axna_updates_on_im_twi.html Python Mon, 24 Dec 2007 19:28:05 -0500 The other day a client contacted us in order to fill out an enhacement request. We developed for him several multiuser applications that he rents per day. Everything runs under FMS and he manages it via a web-based admin tool we built too. He had the need to broadcast a maintenance message to all connected vhost admins via a web-form. We can't use flash for this because the admin tool is cell-phone compatible for remote administration. Flash lite is not an option at this time. http://blog.funciton.com/en/2007/12/broadcast_message_to_fms_witho.html http://blog.funciton.com/en/2007/12/broadcast_message_to_fms_witho.html Flash Media Server Mon, 24 Dec 2007 09:36:02 -0500 I've been thinking a lot lately about my school experience and it was awful. I always felt comfortable with studies until i started coding and doing internet related stuff. My school wasn't comfortable with my thoughts. This is the first post of a series i'm to be posting (i hope) in order to order my ideas and start sharing experiences. With this i would like to give my 2 cents to schools in this country. http://blog.funciton.com/en/2007/12/my_school_and_internet_experie.html http://blog.funciton.com/en/2007/12/my_school_and_internet_experie.html General Sun, 02 Dec 2007 21:14:26 -0500
