I’ve just been asked to speak at the DX3 conference in Boston this spring.  I’ll be giving a session about Flex working with various data sources.  Flex can work as a front-end to many different server-side technologies and in this session we’ll examine a few of them and talk about how Flex can communicate with those systems.

I’ll be giving two sessions at the 360 Flex conference coming up on March 5th. The first will be an intro to E4X and how you can use it to make working with XML inside ActionScript much easier and more powerful. The second will be an overview of using Design Patterns within ActionScript 3 and Flex 2.

If you’re unfamiliar with Design Patterns, ActionScript 3 or using Design Patterns in ActionScript 3 this session would be great for you. You should also check out the book Joey Lott and I recently published titled Advanced ActionScript 3 with Design Patterns.
