Adobe Flex/AIR Article Competition: And The Winners Are…

Our competition to write articles about Adobe Flex and Adobe AIRhas come to a close, and we’ve selected our winners.

We were amazed at the quality of entries that we received, and deliberated for some time before choosing our winners.

Articles were judged on the following criteria:

  • English:How strong a command of the English language did the author have? How well did they explain difficult concepts to the reader?
  • Technical:Were the concepts and techniques described best practice? Did the sample code run successfully?
  • Educational value:How useful were the concepts taught in the article for a reader? How good a foundation was laid for the user to begin developing with the technology on their own?
  • Interestingness:I think Flickr might have trademarked this term, but I’m going to use it here anyway. Does the article really grab the reader and command their attention?

So without further ado, here are the winners:

    Jack will receive a copy of Adobe CS3 Web Premium, and his article will appear on the front page of sitepoint.com. Congratulations Jack!
