For a moment, I’d like to you remember what you can about The Matrix. Now, only think about the first film, and not the other two, as if you’re anything like me, you’ve spent considerable time and effort to suppress the memories of those even existing, and I’d hate for you to...

After months of silence on the issue, I can finally reveal the project I’ve been working on for the last few months. I can also explain why you might find an unusual amount of Kelly Clarkson music on my iPod, and why I know every word of some of her songs. (It even explains why three geeks from...

Nothing terribly fancy today, but I found something I made a while ago and figured I’d share it. If you’re a fan of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, it’s very likely that you’ve seen the teaser trailer for the sequel that was released back in March. In the trailer, pretty much...

I’m sorry to return from such a long break from posting with a rant like this, but I wanted to get this story out there. Today I’d like to present a new theory I’m currently working on. I’ve yet to come up with a name for this, but in summary, here it is: Any customer service...

Interested in getting the inside story about what is sure to be one of this summer’s hottest iPhone apps? If so, make sure to get your ticket to the 360|iDev conference that’s happening in Denver this September. I’ll be speaking about an app that Rain has been working on for the last...

A couple of weeks ago I posted a bitmap effect I’d created a while back using the BitmapData class in AS3. It works pretty well, but the problem with it is that it’s a bit limited, in the sense that it can really only be used with a static image. (You could use it with an animation, but not...

I saw this effect a long time ago, and wanted to use it in a project, but after about ten minutes of searching for the original, I gave up and just decided to make my own. See it in action. This is just a basic bitmap effect that uses BitmapData to draw an image, with the pixels spilling down from the...

While digging through my archives, I came across this little experiment I did back in January of 2005. I had been playing a lot with the drawing API in Flash, and got the idea to try redrawing a bitmap image, but using the drawing API. As this was originally done in the days of Flash 7, before we had...

I’ll be speaking at 360|Flex Indy in May! I’ll be speaking on using Events, and how to do more with them beyond the basic addEventListener() call that we all know and love. Luckily, after checking out the schedule, I get to present on the first day, right after the keynote, so I can get my...

Welcome to ghostRadio.net. So… what is it, and why did I bother? For a long time, I’ve been wanting to redesign my site, and separate the development-related stuff I write from the more personal stuff I post. I’ve also wanted to create a portfolio site of sorts, to show off my past...
