Re: [Flashcoders] is flash still alive?
It's strange that they would think that Flash is for fast computers and high bandwidth as the Flash player's ubiquety is due in no small way to the fact that it is very well optimised for speed and size to allow it to run on most machines. Of course I have no idea what you're running it on in the Philippines so maybe that's a factor w: www.flashcoder.net/blog It sucks though that in a place like the Philippines (where I am), people aren't into this technology so much yet. They almost always think that Flash is for fast computers and high bandwidth. Most likely, even if a team feels they are quite skilled, their skills are not tested or pushed to the limit. To answer your questions, yes it's quite active. Even here, there is some advancement, however small, in embracing the technology, thanks to site like YouTube. -- Ramon Miguel M.

Absolutely. I can't speak for other markets but I do know that there is a huge demand for ActionScript skills in Australia. I run a small Flash agency and we have plenty of work to keep us busy and struggle to find enough quality resources. It's even to the point where our developers are booked up for a couple of months in advanced. There seems to be a fair amount of novice developers claiming to be skilled which can cause problems... so anyone with STRONG AS skills is highly sought after. Flex 2 and Flash Lite work is much less common though still required enough to warrant internal developer training and research.

Since Flex relies heavily on ActionScript, I would expect that knowing ActionScript is more important than ever.

Re: [Flashcoders] is flash still alive?
I've just left contracting in London to take a senior role in New York and I still get loads of calls from London based agencies looking for good AS developers and I can't find enough good AS devs in New York for all the work we have. You'll be in high demand mate. Actionscript is the future. Get used to it. This may sound a stupid question. But I've been away from flash developing for one year.

I can't speak for London, but at least locally here in Denver (Colorado, USAmerica), business is booming here--so much so that we have yet to stop interviewing and hiring strong ActionScript developers. If the market there is similar and you have some mad skills, I don't think you'll be hurting for work. Speaking to the type of candidate that my company looks for (as a shop specializing in bespoke software development of the RIA flavor), I would suggest learning ActionScript 3 and mastering the nuances of the new Flex Framework if you haven't already, especially if you are planning on getting in on RIA development work. That being said though, there's no lack of work in the rich media end of the Flash spectrum either, there's quite a few openings at some of the local design agencies around town, and they're looking for competent ActionScript developers too--there's quite a bit of demand for top talent--these days, you can pretty much choose what kind of Flash platform work you want to do. Taken in summary, I'd venture to say that the market for ActionScript is better now than it has ever been.

Re: [Flashcoders] is flash still alive?
It sucks though that in a place like the Philippines (where I am), people aren't into this technology so much yet. They almost always think that Flash is for fast computers and high bandwidth. Most likely, even if a team feels they are quite skilled, their skills are not tested or pushed to the limit. To answer your questions, yes it's quite active. Even here, there is some advancement, however small, in embracing the technology, thanks to site like YouTube. -- Ramon Miguel M.
