Why this analysis? During an internship at IBM Germany back in 2009, I had to develop a Visualizer based on Flex that heavily relied on its charting library API. Even on strong machines, it was […]

Since a lot of time has passed and many things changed since then, I think it’s time for an updated sight on this technology. Back in the days when […]

What I don’t like is the target platform: The Flash Player. So, after all these debates about Flash, isn’t it time to simply drop the Flash Player […]

It seems like Google started bundling the Flash Player together with Chrome, which has an automatic updating engine (in the background) and thus you probably didn’t notice the update. This integrated version of Flash Player is the […]

If it’s true, this fact would be really astonishing for me, since Google usually tries to push open-source technologies, which Flash definately isn’t. Further, GWT is a direct rival of […]

The basic idea is to modify the current url by adding or removing tags without forcing a page refresh. Example: In the video below, a basic Twitter client is being developed using Silverlight.
