Ben is coming!...Ben is coming!...

There must have been a total eclipse of the sun, and I just missed it!

Ben Forta (CF guru and chief evangelist for Adobe) is going to be in the Triangle...not to speak about CF, but to introduce the world to Flex 3.0 and AIR (aka Apollo).

This "pre-release" tour for Ben will include the usual suspects...NY, Chicago, Atlanta, etc... but the Triangle is now on the map for Adobe, who had the AIRbus make a stop here this summer...

As with that event, Ben's visit will be sponsored by the area AUGs, including the Carolina Adobe User Group (CAUG), TACFUG, and RDAUG. We'll also be welcoming a new group to the ranks of Triangle AUGs, the newly minted Flex user group, the Triangle User Experience...so this meeting will be especially important for expanding their user base in the area.

It will be Jan. 23rd from 6-9 in Cary at the offices of Railinc in Cary (map):
