RIA Talks Seminer Nots

First part of Riatalks is over yesterday. In RIA conference I made a presentation about Flash and Actionscript. Presentation was not so technical, it was more of structure of language, why we use Flash, what is to do with Actionscript and so on…

Beyond that what I found interesting is presentations of Daron Yöndem and Yağız Gürgül. DaronYöndem made a presentation about Silverlight. He explain the current situation, plus and minuses of Silverlight, also why Microsoft build up Silverlight. I didn’t have chance to work with Silverlight but if is true probably people working with live streaming and showing video content may prefer to Silverlight platform.

And Yağız Gürgül, his presentation was totally different, actually I can say he and two of his friends kick all the e-learning works and articles in Turkey. M.E.B (Ministry of Education) open a contest for e-learning and Yağız Gürgül and two of his friends join the contest. The result was good for them because they are the one who won the contest.

Application they made is “Physic Simulator”. In application you decide which kind of information you want to get, for example you select weight of object and how fast you hit, and give you all the possible graphics. The interactivity was in first place in e-learning project and that was the part that I found it great.
