Month: February 2008

My good friend and business associate Arash from PeerGlobe Technology is organizing an awesome event about Adobe Flex, Rails, Air and the new Joomla 1.5 framework. This is supposed to be a fun get together of developers so you don’t have to be an expert in any of those to be able to enjoy the event. rmd Studio, Tazzu Community, and The Network Hub are 3 of the sponsors.

We’re going to have some really neat guest speakers such as Peter Armstrong (http://peterarmstrong.com ) which will be talking about his new book “Flexible Rails” (http://flexiblerails.com ) and Atul Nagpal who is an Adobe AIR and flex expert and will showcasing us some of his tips and tricks.

At the end Ash and I will be talking about the new Joomla 1.5 MVC framework and do a little comparison study.

When: March 19th 2008

And to the smart website owners: if any web designer is doing that to you, I think you should honestly give them the boot and seek professional service somewhere else!
