    This meeting was everything I expected and more. Meeting Jerry Silverman of Adobe was a cherry on top of already very special Flash cake :) I'm fairly new in New York so it was great to meet a group of like-minded individuals and professionals from various backgrounds and of many skill levels. Oh, and, Luis, thanks for the ActionScript 3.0 Bible and adding me to the list on such a short notice! :)

Who attended?

    • “ I thought the meetup was great. I'm looking forward to the next meeting. ”
    • “ If you want to get into AS3, you need to take action and put yourself out there. A great way to do that is by benefiting from luis's hard work organizing these events. I personally feel more connected then if I didn't have this group to goto(). ;) ”
    • “ I met people who had different backgrounds in flash and skills levels. A lot were professionals and it was a great opportunity to not only learn from others but to also network. The guests were great and I learned a lot about the programs and aspects of design/media that were not known to me. ”
