Flash-ASP.Net book that I Tech Reviewed is published!

Congratulations to Ryan Moore the author of the book, and everyone else over at Apress and Friends of Ed who worked to create this book.

If anyone out there is looking for a great start integrating the rich UI capabilities of Flash and the server side capabilities of .Net this is the book to turn to.

I was the Technical Reviewer on this book, so I’ve checked every bit for correctness and tried to find every missing }. If I missed anything let Ryan know, don’t tell me :).

By the time you’re done with this you’ll have created a front end for Google web searching, a simple e-commerce site (selling Kayaks and Cheese graters) and top it off you’ll make a fully functional Video Weblog. Super cool stuff and all of it is available for download if you don’t want to type in the code yourself. Although I do recommend that you work through the code examples to understand exactly how this all works.

Highly recommended (and I don’t get any residuals)

Go check it out.

    Actually I was reading Ryans blog occasionally since he was working in the same problem space that I was working in at the time. (Flash/ASP.Net)

    He mentioned that he had a book upcoming and I volunteered to be the Technical Editor. Ryan and Apress took a look at some of my work for POPstick, and sent me a contract.

    That was about it.

    Of course the stuff I’m working on now is all completely different technologies but what can you do.

    How does one “work” on technologies.

    what does that even mean?

    congrats on the review…I’ll be picking that book up as soon as I can. I’ve heard its a real thriller with a twist ending.
