The Flex Jam is "An Exploration of Flex & AIR Programming". It's a MindView event. There's an book you may want to check out in advance of the Jam - it's called "First Steps in Flex". And, there's a group here at Codetown dedicated to Flex called The Flex Loft. What's a Jam? A software jam is a lab-based workshop experience, where you can:
* Have space and time to focus on learning.
* Decide whether you want to work on your own projects or the supplied programming exercises.
* Work alone or in a group.
* Set your own pace, so that you can "go deep" in areas that are important to you.
* Get guidance from an instructor, as needed.
This is going to be a cool event. Check it out at the Mindview website.
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.
