UPDATE: I know the title is wrong and it should be IUpdateable but I didn't want to break any links for any RSS feeds that already had it.

Short and sweet...if you are having Silvelright 2 Beta 2 issues with Firefox and media streaming, make sure you check Windows Update for a new fix.  I think the OSX guys can just visit a Silverlight page to get it (using the auto-update stuff).

Experimenting with Adobe AiR
Experimenting with Adobe AiR
July 12, 2008

I was under a false impression. I've been using Twhirl for my Twitter client needs as it was the most feature complete client i could find. Twhirl requires the Adobe AiR runtime to work. I thought that AiR was a wrapper around Flex to allow desktop installation of Flex. What I didn't understand was that AiR is a runtime to allow Flex, Flash and HTML/AJAX apps to be hosted as a windowed desktop application. Interesting...so AiR isn't necessarily about Flex, but for all three platforms.

Now that the change to Wildermuth.com is complete I've gotten questions about broken links and such. I am keeping adoguy.com around and redirecting (permanent) the links so that old links aren't going to break. I don't plan on keeping it forever but for several years you can be sure. Its worth keeping them around.
