“The best way to get a job is to start doing it without getting paid…”.
As a soon-to-be new grad, I’ve been running around looking for career advices in the past two months. Thanks to our nice HR lady Jennifer, I had the opportunity to meet many accomplished folks with successful careers, but I was still somewhat uncertain what to do next. A recent meeting with our tech evangelist, Mike Potter, really changed my outlook on things. Mike’s “just giver” attitude made me realize that the best way to get the job I want is to roll up the sleeves and get my hands dirty. So here it is, my blog. I want to be an evangelist someday, and this blog is going help me learn the ropes.
The focus of this blog is Adobe’s enterprise product line, namely Flex and LiveCycle. I’ll highlight neat solutions built using Flex/Livecycle, as well as comment on media buzz relevant to the technology. To differentiate my blog, I’ll also deliver bite-sized tutorials on a weekly basis. Please stay tuned and feel free to subscribe to my RSS feed.
Need to bring your Flex project up to speed? Zee Yang is a freelance Flex developer with deep understanding of architecture and user experience. You can reach him at zee.yang@gmail.com.

Looking forward to your posts! Perhaps you can do an entry on livecycle that will explain what it is in non-marketing terms? I have been hearing it more and more lately, but have never really gotten a good explanation of what it is…

This is great, Anthony. I’m actually working with another intern to clone the LC vertical demo. I’m working on the LC side and my friend is working on the Flex side. I’m going to post our progress on this blog, so stay tuned

Wow I am glad to hear this. I have all the Lifecycle and Flex tools and plan on playing around with Flex very soon. I would however like to learn more about security elements in flex. Primairly on how it can be used to collect protected data and sign / encrypt. I understand this can be done with lifecycle, but flex provides a much richer experience. I look forward to hopefully read a future blog on security arround flex.
