Heya! Had to take a little break from blogging to deal with other work/life schtuff but I'm back with a cool event I hope you'll attend.

As y'all know we launched the JavaFX platform last week. And there is so much cool content out there for you to take in. Overviews, demos, etc. Well, add this event to the cool content. Tomorrow, December 9 at 1pm PST, Danny Coward, JavaFX Architect will be in Second Life talkin' 'bout JavaFX. Jonathan Erickson, Editorial Director of Dr. Dobb's Journal will be conducting the interview. Should be really good. I'm talking good gravy here peeps. I'll be there (avatar name: Heidi SunMicrosystems). If you are interested in JavaFX, you should probably be there too :)

Attend in Second Life.

Catch the action via webstream.

Cheers!
