Sitewatcher AIR App

Blog post now up over at Boagworld discussing our first foray in to the world of Adobe AIR. Would be great to hear any feedback, both on the app and the article itself. So please do let me know your thoughts.

We're aware of a few little tweaks that could be made and minor bugs that could be fixed but I encourage anyone using it to take a look into their 'Program Files\Sitewatcher' folder to check out how it was made. Hopefully doing so will add to the article and possibly enable you to add your own customisations, I'd love to hear about them.

Dave has already blogged about the app and we tried to pitch the boagworld post at AIR first timers, to give you a feel as to how easy it is to use and what you can achieve. Hopefully the post has whetted your appetite.

You may not know this but this blog has been xml based since its inception (in fact there's a longstanding, not yet achieved, task to 'replace' it with a 'better' persistant storage mechanism -- clearly I must agree then, that the perfect is the enemy of the good). But anyway... don't worry. I'm not about to do anotherblogaboutxml.
