FFFFOUND AS3 API

I recently released FFFFOUND Desk­top, this AIR app uses a home-made API that I’m open sourc­ing today. The code is hosted on Google Code and is avail­able via SVN, I also uploaded a zip archive if you prefer.

You’ll find the (asdocs) docs in the repos­i­tory and in the archive.

By the way, I love feed­back. If you use it: please share!

Also, if you need exam­ples on how to use it, ask. I think the sources are self-explanatory but I might be wrong.

A few impor­tant things (also posted on the project’s page):

  • For now, this API will only work in AIR projects because ffffound.com’s crossdomain.xml is too restric­tive. I’ve con­tacted them but at this time they don’t want to change it.
  • The API relies on FFFFOUND’s RSS feeds but also on the site’s pages’ HTML, so some func­tion­al­i­ties might break at any time with­out warn­ing. Use with caution.

Watch the com­ments for any update or news!

WebKut + flickr = love

Love.

An impor­tant update (1.2) to WebKut has just been released! You can now pub­lish your “Kuts” to your flickr account…

I will release the code of WebKut’s flickr part my AIR utils pretty soon. I might also add this pub­lish option to Shrink O’Matic, too. Still think­ing about the UI for this one.

This “post to flickr” option is still bêta and you will prob­a­bly notice some issues, if so, please drop your feed­back in the com­ments. One thing I know is that spe­cial char­ac­ters will look odd on the flickr side… Work­ing on that.

Google Maps Flash API!

Quick post: great news!
