Plone is an open source content management system that runs on the Zope web server. I’ve been using plone for over half a year now. I administer our internal account portal. I rate it the coolest CMS in the world. It has a fantastic UI, excellent workflow, robust performance and it is the easiest thing to administer.

The Flex Chennai User Group had a kick-off last week at HeyMath Inc, Alwarpet. I had been there. Raghu from Adobe had come. Attendees were flash developers, java developers and people who had been working with Flex for long. We got introduced to each other (primary key was the blog name ;)). Raghu briefed on the flex resources available on the internet. There were discussions on few of the flex features too. Looking forward for the next meet.

Flex 3 is out, I downloaded a copy of it yesterday. Tinkering with it. And I am excited about Adobe Apollo, or should I say AIR (Adobe Integrated Runtime). The SDK is out. This has been a happening week..

Adobe AIR’s
Flash Engine - Tamarin VM
HTML Engine - Webkit
Aptana IDE has an AIR Plug-in. Download it here
and I think AIR has some PDF rendering abilities too..

I am trying out a lil offline application with AIR. Shall post the source code when done..
