In my travels I have heard of the glorious power XML commands. XHTML, XJAX, XAML, RSS, and the list goes on. But I only really care about XML with Flash and getting at my content as fast as possible while being able to traverse it rapidly. So here are a few good links to help speed things up:

Rapid Application Development
Flash is great at application interaction, but falls short of producing an “real” application. For that, you can grab a few R.A.D apps to get you the rest of the way.
Recently for a project I purchased ZINC but needed to access it’s properties from an AS 2.0 perspective within the hour. So instead of looking around I decided to roll my own. It’s still a draft version written at midnight for an autorun CD. Most of the methods are either test functions or used only to run a file from an xml driven menu.

Ok, I’ll say it again, FINALLY! Over the past year of working with Craig I have seen one version of the website prior to this one. While each has had its own style, I am happy to see ONE live. While we can all agree the content is top notch, the latest Section Seven Inc. website takes a fresh approach to content presentation that has caused some common points to crop up all over the net. Size, load time, project details, navigation. Which of these can be be overlooked and which can’t be ignored..
