Project Quindici = MAXwidget

by Serge Jespers on 21. Aug, 2009 in MAX2009

If you’re following me on Twitter, you may have seen me Tweet about Project Quindici. Quindici is Italian for 15. Project Quindici is actually a widget that (among other things) allows you to record your own testimonial and thus claim your 15 minutes of fame.

I’m happy to announce that the project is now live. The widget is built with Flex Builder 3 and the Flex 3 framework, ColdFusion, Flash Media Server and Photoshop. I’ll do a follow up blog post about how it was built next week. I hope you like it.

    Hi Serge
    Great stuff!
    One minor comment though: when I clicked “get Widget” I expected to get an AIR application …
    Will you plan to have it as an AIR app ?

    Awesome widget! Those facts are funny, interesting and make me wanna know more :)
    Looking forward on how you built it.

    The ‘Get Widget’ functionality doesn’t seem to be working. It opens a blank panel.

    @cisnky Sadly this does indeed happen sometimes. We are investigating this but it seems to happen very randomly. Apologies for the inconvenience.
