More Fun Flash Ideas
It's a great time to be a member of the Flash community. With such amazing projects as Philter Design's Flash RSS Reader and The Feasible Impossibilities Talking Blog we are really beginning to see the power behind MX.

I came up with few ideas that would incorporate both Jabber and these new technologies. In the good-natured spirit of sharing, here they are:

• A scrolling Flash blog news ticker. This ticker would use a Jabber RSS component (similar to the example in DJ Adams' book Programming Jabber) to push feed data to a Flash-based ticker application.
• A talking chat room using the Feasibile Impossibilities technology and my <plug type="shameless"> soon to be released Flash JabberConf API </plug>.

If you have any other ideas, I'd love to hear them.
