The SWFAddress method of creating a back-button for browsers looks promising, although I must confess I’m not entirely sure how to go about using it quite yet. It’s supposed to be a simple solution to deep-linking in Flash and is advertised to be as simple to set up as SWFObject. If anyone has success making this work, be sure to let me know!

I know there are other solutions out there, but in my opinion, we need more! I’m surprised that Adobe/Macromedia haven’t come up with a real solution for this yet.

This one has been on my mind for some time. It’s all about cigarette butts being thrown out of car windows once you’re done with them. I am completely baffled by this behavior. Who decided that this was acceptable? It is rude, filthy, and worst of all selfish. We know you don’t want that junk in your car, but what makes you think we want it on our streets? So please, when you’re done with your cancer stick - keep it to yourself. Every car has an ashtray. Use it.

I uploaded an ImageFader file on FlashDen a couple of weeks ago. For those of you who don’t know what FlashDen is, I encourage you to take a look. It seems like it could be a promising little site, and I’m banking (yes, literally) on my hopes that it takes off!
