Time Drifters

It is the fourth month and to come, and almost half a year I’m here. Time passes so fast I barely remembered what had happened during the last 2 month. Both exciting, exhausting and thrilling at least. One of the event was to celebrate my boss’s birthday at Cafe Del Mar in Sentosa. Which it’s a place that I’ve never been before. Excitingly, me and my other 3 colleague never been there before as well, which led us to…

Somewhere uphill, and walking down the drips of the rain. This is due to the taxi driver that drove just right into Sentosa and left us uphill near the golf turf.

Busting AS3’s Myths


Mythbusters Video Voting Minisite

Another good practice for me to debunk all my questions on AS3 right away. Took quite a while for the power to kick in, but I really felt using best practice in AS3 really does fastens up productivity by a lot.
That is not only applying for myself, but imagining there will be another colleague of yours that might need to change your code in case you are not there, temporarily. Full fledge Tweener class in AS3 is used inside as you can see.

Minimal animation at this point because I’m not sure if it is appropriate to go all crazy with my limited knowledge on AS3. On the other, I noticed error handling are certainly way better and detailed than AS2/AS1 counterparts, though it might be a serious pain in the ass when the compiler keeps bitching on missing or unknown objects.

What other benefits I have learnt from there? Loading objects and controlling them are becoming more structural, if it’s a correct word to use, which means sending and receiving data will be more “organized”. Even controlling of video object (flv) is easy, and I can easily retrieve the playheadTime on the fly. But of course one of the biggest myth debunked that, learning AS2 in advance does help you to-know which object to use for an interaction, although the calling method might be entirely different now.

offtopic – have I mentioned I totally enjoyed http://www.thesixtyone.com ?
