Tour de LiveCycle

LiveCycleI was sent a link today (thanks Josh) and I wanted to go ahead and pass it on. The link was to the new Tour de LiveCycle. It looks pretty slick and I’m looking forward to really digging around in it.

What is it?

Tour de LiveCycle is a desktop application designed by the Adobe Evangelist team to serve as both an introduction to Adobe LiveCycle ES and an extensive reference tool.

You can (and should) install it from the Tour de LiveCycle badge below and you can (and should) read about more it on the Adobe site or on Greg Wilson’s Ramblings.

Wow! Another chapter in the Design Center!

AdobeSo I was perusing the Adobe site last night and I suddenly found myself saying, “Hey, that’s a picture of me on adobe.com!” The very nice people running the Adobe Design Center have posted another chapter (chapter 10 – Preparing and building microsites) of my book so I just wanted to take a second (again) to publicly thank Jen, Sara and anyone else involved in making it happen.

Thanks everyone!

I’m in the Adobe Design Center!

AdobeI’d like to take a minute give a BIG thanks to Jen deHaan and Sara DiGregorio at Adobe for taking time out of their recent days to talk with me and my publisher about including an excerpt from my book on adobe.com. I’m obviously very excited about this and I hope that the excerpt, which is chapter 4, will peak your interest enough to check out the rest of the book.

Thanks again Jen and Sara!
