There’s another Adobe roadshow scheduled in Manila on 7th of April 2006, just a day after the Production Studio Roadshow.
Adobe Acrobat 3D can publish, share, review, and mark up 3D designs in Intelligent Documents. It’s designed for engineering and technical professionals in manufacturing industries such as automotive, aerospace and industrial machinery as well as the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) market.
The Acrobat 3D roadshow would begin with an overview of the new Acrobat 3D followed by a short cofee / tea break and finally, an actual collaborative workflow demo of Acrobat 3D. This sounds very interesting because these kind of tools for collaboration and 3D presentation is very new in the Philippine market today, as far as I know. I’m not sure if the industry in the Philippines will embrace this kind of tools for their projects. It is something to look forward to.
The venue for the event is yet to be announced but you may already register in the event. If you work in one of the aforementioned industry you should check out what’s in store for you.

CNN reported few days ago that .NET programmers are highly in demand in 2006.This is generally true in the big cities in America. The trend is about the same in the Philippine and yes, .NET programmers are in demand but high pay seekers in the Philippines will be disappointed to know that .NET programmers’ salary in the Philippines is far from our American counterparts. There’s no wonder why brain drain in the taking place in the Philippines as more programmers gamble their talents abroad.

The idea is simple — you embed few line of codes and you’ll be able to play flash games with anyone who visits your blog or web page. Just register in Bunchball.com, pick your game and get the code for embedding in your blog or web page.
Embeded flash app hosted in Bunchball.com is not limited to games only. For instance there’s a flash radio in Bunchball.com that enables you to share streaming MP3s (you have to host the file elsewhere). I noticed that most of the flash games found in Bunchball were created by Neave and some other flash apps were created primarily by Bunchball developer, Rajat Paharia. Flash game developers can also create and share their own games using the full ActionScript API which makes deployment of existing games possible to their multi-player platform.
I have embeded a tetris clone here in my blog. Let’s play N-blox.
If you are using Netvibes to read RSS feeds you will be able to view and play the flash game too.
UPDATE:
This embedded flash game is already gone.
