I’ll be attending MIX in Las Vegas in a couple of weeks and was wondering if anyone else from the Flash community will be going as well. I know it’s a Microsoft conference, but it would be good to see some familiar faces around. Also, there is a photo treasure hunt that takes place on March 4th. It sounds like it could be a lot of fun. If you are interested in putting in a team let me know.

Multimedia released Zinc 3.0, their next generation SWF2Exe application, this week. I played around with it a couple of weeks ago when it was released to current users, and I have to say the improvements are amazing. My favorite improvements are the new UI and the ability to only include the libraries that you are using in your application. Last year we did a lot of work with the 3 major players in this area, Zinc, mProjector, and SWFStudio, and for me my preference is Zinc. I am really looking forward to porting over some of our applications to version 3 to see if there is a substantial performance difference.
