Liz Frederick's New Role

The Adobe evangelism and community teams love telling the world about our products, but it sometimes feels like we spend more time talking to our best and most loyal friends than we do the bigger developer and designer universe. And so we're launching a program to get the word out to other communities, including those focused on Java, PHP, and Android. And I'm really excited that our own Liz Frederick has agreed to head up this program, as she announced on the Community Kitchen today.

Adobe Connect At 39,000 Feet

Yep, you read the title correctly. I just hosted a Connect session at 39,000 from somewhere over Wyoming using Delta in-flight Wi-Fi.

My Chat With ZDNet Australia

When I was in Australia last month I had the opportunity to sit down with Chris Duckett to chat about ColdFusion, Flash, MAX announcements, and more, and the video is now online on the ZDNet Australia site. And it actually turned out pretty well (yes, I am somewhat surprised, this was basically moments after landing after flying in from the U.S., talk about hitting the ground running!).
