In Part 1, I described my interview with Avi Muchnick of the Aviary team. I also described the features in Aviary now as well as some stuff that is coming in the future. Well, to be honest, talking about it is just not enough. I t decided to do a walk through of both Phoenix and Peacock so everyone can see the power of these Flex based applications.

This screencast will demonstrate how to use the Clipboard Explorer AIR application. This application can be used to experiment with Adobe AIR's clipboard support. As with all of the samples I will post here - 'View Source' is enabled and can be used by simply right clicking on the chrome of the application and selecting 'View Source'.
This screencast tutorial will take you through the complete cycle of building a Flex based AIR project with Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 from the creation of the project through the export to the AIR package.
This section will be the future home for screencasts dedicated to RIA Development. Got an idea for a topic you would like to see created as a screencasts on RIA Development? Please contact me at rtretola@oreilly.com....
