Switched to WordPress
I never thought the day would come that I traded in my fancy Flex front end for a more conventional blog front end but sadly today is that day. Well… First of all, it’s mainly because I am too lazy to actually complete all the plans I had for the Flex front end. Things like video embed, better HTML support, code hinting, … the sorts of things that are standard in just about any blog engine out there.
I’m pretty sure I will eventually go back to a Flex front end but for now, this will do just fine. I plan on blogging a lot more including stuff like code samples, how-to videos etc…
I would also like to apologize if this move to WordPress totally hi-jacked your newsreader or feed-aggregator. I added a permanent redirect from the old rss-url to the new one so that may cause a complete refresh of my items. I hope not, but it could happen. And if it did, I apologize.
Also, if you came here from a Google search result, chances are this page was not what you were looking for. I only converted my last 10 articles from my previous blog to the new blog so I’m sorry if the article you were looking for is no longer here.







Imho it’s pretty funny that Adobe evangelists like you and Christophe Coenraets are blogging with WordPress instead with some kind of Flex based solution.
I’m still too stubborn to start using WordPress (or something similar) unfortunately…though I must admit I’ve been thinking about it a lot.
A flex front-end for a wordpress backend always seemed like a nice solution though it’s not that easy at all to accomplish; don’t you think?
Maybe if enough people might find it worthwhile and would like to contribute to a little open source project things would start rolling.
Greets,
