I was going through all my feeds and checking out all the nerdy stuff going on, when I came across something that rang vaguely familiar with me. Adobe Flex was releasing a version 3. Why did that ring a bell with me? It finally came to me, while I was out at the Zend conference, there was a booth for Adobe Flex and giving out cds with it. I had really been intrigued with it and wanted to try it.

So I downloaded a copy - it’s even better now, it’s a 61 day trial on the Flexbuilder (eclipse based) program. So after scouring around the livedocs and other sites around the net I came up with a hacked little program that allows you to enter a rss feed and it’ll go get it and show you a teaser for the entry you select. It seems to me, rss readers are becoming the replacement for the standard ‘Hello World’ creation.
