We all know Flash has very limited support of HTML markup, right? I had a recent AS2.0 update project where the client gave me content that included some tables, so I went looking for a 3rd party component that might be able to do the trick.

And I found it.

An old friend and I were deep in conversation Saturday night about our iPhones, app development for the platform, and related business when I asked if he had converted to using a Mac. He told me his kids were converting, but he had too much invested in his PC for work and couldn’t bare to part with it right now. When I told him about how he could virtualize his existing PC and run it on his Mac without reinstalling anything he was in awe. It occurred to me that many people may not know just how easy this can be.

In my spare time, or when I just need a break from a crushing deadline, I’ve been continuing to work on the smaller details on this site. I find the tangent brings me back on task revitalized. But that’s another story about the fruitful benefits of adventuring down rabbit trails.

The original design for the site had my twitter feed just above in the red bar displayed in a slightly nicer, thicker font. I also had some of the other detail of the tweets such as the program used included. I decided to make this portion of the page into a little Flash widget and explore a little interactivity.
