This is just a reminder that the URL for my weblog has changed to:
http:www.macromedia.comgoblog_mchambers
This will be my last post on this site. Also, it might take a few days for some of the aggregators to get the new XML feed, so make sure to check in on the website more often.

Thanks to everyone who offered their services as a designer in response to my request. The position has been filled and you should see the results of the work in the coming days (it is pretty sweet).
Also, there will be some changes with my weblog in the coming weeks, possibly including a new URL. If you link to my weblog, please use this URL:
http:www.macromedia.comgoblog_mchambers
as that will always point to my weblog, even it it moves.
Sorry for the sporadic posts lately, but as I mentioned.

Apple announced yesterday that it is releasing a new browser named Safari. The browser has support for the Flash player (it uses the existing player already on the system).

Christian Cantrell, the new Server Community Manager for Macromedia has just launched his weblog.
You can view it here.
The weblog system is a temporary one that he put together (using CFMX) over the past couple of days (although, I think it is pretty impressive). We are working on a more permanent, long term solution.
