Hacking Robots for Fun and Profit
Just got back from the Flash and the City conference in NYC. The conference was a smashing success! It sold out, and people were really impressed as far as I can tell based on the discussions on Twitter and at the actual show. Elad, Jesse, Kevin, and Jose all have a lot to be proud of. As I mentioned in my presentation, I would share my deck and the source code… and so, here you go.
If you want the source code, mosey on over to Erik Peterson’s blog, Electric Pineapple.

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting so many great people in the Flash scene. It was pretty cool finally putting faces with the Twitter handles! Hey… and please go to the Alder planetarium and go check out the exhibit!
