FlexMap: Yahoo! Maps for Flex 2.0!

Last week, Tim Walling said he was planning to release an easy-to-use wrapper for the Yahoo! Maps Flex component. It's painful to use the Yahoo! version, because it's Flex 1.5 compatible and requires creation of a .SWF wrapper, hoop jumping, etc.

Thankfully, Tim's now done a good deal of that hoop jumping for us, and done it in an open-source way! Read more at the FlexMap project page.

My favorite Flex code

I've typed this exact line of code a few times, and it cracks me up each time. Just thought I'd share...it's nothing important.

var application:Application = Application.application as
Application;

That is all.
