Laszlo - So good, I had to change my underwear

Lazlo does was Java was supposed to do -- let you run desktop-app-like applications within a browser window. But Lazlo doesn't require any plugin on its own, or flaky, slow Java. Instead, the Lazlo compiler turns Lazlo code (which is written in very fast, flexible, human-readable XML) into Flash apps. - BoingBoing

Develop applications via a highly productive declarative programming approach [...] Laszlo applications are developed via a familiar object-oriented XML markup approach that reinforces todays development best practices - Laszlo Systems

LZX is an event-driven, object-oriented language for building dynamic, data-driven applications. Because it's an XML language, LZX integrates seamlessly with your existing IDE, source control, and team development systems. - Laszlo in 10 minutes

A reliable, free, Flash development tool is really good news for amateur web designers. This will probably be a huge success.

Updated LtU Archive Index

Been a while since I've updated my archive index - specifically since the demise of manilla back in late June. This site is easier to index, but still I like to have access to all the thread titles on a single page. Index includes both the original archive index, as well as the new site.

In the process of doing this, I've cleared off all the original archive pages from my website. Our host has them available on the this website via the Archive. Makes more sense to have all the pages on our main site, rather than multiple copies floating around (even though I put norobot meta tags in them).

For some reason, it seems like we've been moved longer than the 3-4 months that have actually elapsed. Thanks to Anton again for the home.
