		<description><![CDATA[Around 8 months ago I was asked to start thinking about the now emerging (particularly from a Flash Platform perspective) world of multi-screen application development. What are issues to consider? What guidance should we offer? It turns out that my thinking on that topic isn&#8217;t going to become anything in the Adobe documentation. So I&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My team at Adobe is conducting a few usability-type studies to learn more about how our customers actually work (and hopefully improve our products as a result =). To sweeten the deal, we&#8217;re offering Amazon gift cards for participants. (There are a limited number of participant slots available.) We&#8217;re mainly looking for developers who have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wanted to share a couple of links and some of my thoughts about Mozilla Prism (also here), which (from my understanding) is currently a way to take a browser page and isolate it so that it runs in its own window (and maybe its own process &#8212; not certain about that one) without the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Simplified Chaos has an insightful article about deciding when to use AIR and when to stick to browser-based Flash/Flex. His recommendation is to use the browser by default, and only move to AIR if you really need that desktop functionality. His reasoning, which I can agree with, is that people are much less likely to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Note: a new article based on this one was published on the Adobe Developer Center in September 2007. The article (&#8220;Deep-linking to frames in Flash websites&#8221;) includes more background and detail of the first technique (the no-code approach) described in this article, but doesn&#8217;t discuss any of the other approaches.

		<description><![CDATA[Sho Kuwamoto has ideas on interaction design for RIAs. This is a good, if not comprehensive, list to think about. Many of these seem to come from his experience with desktop app. design, and a lot of them were pretty familiar to me from HCI design courses I took in grad school (which is one [...]]]></description>
