on AIR Bus Tour Boston: Yahoo and Adobe AIR

j r conlin gave a talk about What can Yahoo! Do For You?

Yahoo Developer Network provides lots of tools, largely free to use, with Flash/Flex specific content. These include: Maps, Search, YUI, Flickr, del.icio.us, Upcoming, Pipes, MyBlogLog, BBAuth, YSlow, Astra, etc.

YUI: Lots of widgets that you don't have to build. Calender, grid, etc.

Pipes: RSS type mashup capabilities for non programmers.

AirMail: Drag and drop mail application written in AIR (not public yet).

Astra: YUI for Flex developers, BSD style license.

Cool! Thanks for the links. I'm kinda bummed I forgot to talk about YSlow and the performance stuff (That's what I get for not having a script), or any of the pattern libraries, or other stuff buried on the site. Still, feel free to check them out and let us know what you think. Thanks again for coming out!
