I have not been putting as much time into my professional development as I used to but I still make incremental advances. ASP.NET<\/strong> technology has outpaced me since I managed to catch up with ASP.NET 2.0. I have not learned anything about MVC and very little about Linq or Silverlight. Now that Silverlight 3.0<\/strong> has been released and can be used with Microsoft Web Developer Express, I have begun to reacquaint myself with Silverlight.<\/p>\n

I have been doing a lot more with Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3.0. I’ll probably be expanding my expertise with Flash because I recently used it in a project. That finally gives me an excuse to really master the technology. I’m reading the book Flash Hacks<\/em> on my lunch breaks. I recently added a topic to my notes on SWFObject 2.2<\/a> which has been updated. It now comes with an AIR application to generate the code.<\/p>\n

I also resumed work on my code for nested comments in Elgg<\/strong> blogs but this is going very slowly. I figured out how to create a RSS feed for the comments using a custom script. It could not be done using the REST API or a RSS view so this is somewhat non-standard. Now I need to order the comments for nested replies and then work on the final display of the nested comments.<\/p>\n

I’ve been feeling uninspired because I don’t have any all consuming interest or passion at the moment. So instead of putting a lot of energy into any one thing I’ve been rotating between a multitude of previous interests which I put a little work into for incremental progress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
