Why Flex Matters: Last week I asked your help, to tell a friend about Flex 2 Public Beta if you thought they could use it, in hopes of escaping the ghetto of early adopters in which new technology can languish.
Flex 1.0 was targeted at the small audience in enterprise development who could pay to subsidize further research and testing.
Flex 2, tell a friend: I'm asking your help with something, because there will soon be a short window in which we can have a big impact.

 Citi controls all the aces with i-flex and OrbiTech - Express Computer India
i-flex is perhaps the only Indian company to start developing a product from day one, unlike others who are basically ‘productising’ a project done for a client earlier.
As it is, i-flex looks at Citigroup as more of a VC, and would like to be known as an independent company which addresses markets on its own strengths.
Such a sell-out from i-flex is bound to generate cash flows for Citigroup, a part of which can be pumped into OrbiTech for future organic expansion through acquisitions and takeovers, which could probably be a strategy for OrbiTech.

 Atlas v. DC Comics   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Flex Mentallo also wears leopard skin trunks like the photograph of Charles Atlas that often appears along with plaintiff's comic ad, and is often depicted with the "Hero of the beach" halo around his head.
In effect, the character Flex Mentallo is a farcical commentary on plaintiff's implied promises of physical and sexual prowess through use of the Atlas method.
According to the affidavit of Atlas's president, the Flex Mentallo character "darkly diverges and in a misogynist (and un-Atlas) manner from the Atlas trademark comic-ad.

 An Architect's View - Flex & Me
Flex uses a lot of HTML idioms in its markup so it's fairly approachable.
I agree that Flex solves many of these problems that developers shouldn't be concerned with.
I agree with Marc, wholeheartedly, that to confine a product like Flex to the enterprise space, however lucrative, may backfire lest the thousands of non-enterprise developers are served as well.

 WPage / Crisis-Relevant Text: Flex Mentallo
Flex's first appearance was in Doom Patrol #35, where he was a bearded and inarticulate resident of Danny the Street (a sentient transvestite teleporting roadway - no really, Grant Morrison at his finest here, folks).
Flex's origin is a simple variant on the infamous Charles Atlas ad (see sidebar).
Flex seems to be living in a world which had superheroes in it until very recently, but who left for parts unknown, leaving the Earth on the brink of destruction.

It's not long now until FLEX 2.0 Framework gets dispersed amongst thine fellow developers, and there is going to be a lot of excitement surrounding any who reach out and touch it.
FLEX may look easy on the surface (I mean its XML and JavaScripty style language, how hard can it be?) but in reality it will take a fair amount of learning to get a grasp of how it works and why it works in the way it does.
I personally had a luxury with FLEX 1.0, I was given 6 months straight to "learn it", while working at Tourism Queensland.

Gamble did not care really if he caught anything, but he said he enjoyed anticipating the catch, the slight tug on his line and flex in his pole.
Gamble was also a novice inventor, who was forever confident that his next idea would be his greatest and help pay for he and his wife to retire in comfort.
But halfway through this wholesome conversation, Gamble pulled out a fishing pole and demonstrated to me how this fishing rod he invented would be able to collapse into this little something that could fit about any tackle box.

 i-flex set to revel with ‘Reveleus’ - News Analysis - Express Computer India
With regulatory provisions such as Basel II expected to come into force, Reveleus, an i-flex subsidiary is eyeing a significant share of the risk management market.
That i-flex does not want Reveleus to be shadowed by its largest selling product, Flexcu-be, can be gauged from the fact that the company formed a separate subsidiary to ensure that Reveleus gets a branding distinct from Flexcube.
i-flex’s gamble has paid off as close to 50 percent of Reveleus’ customers are organisations that do not use Flexcube.

Its easy to sit back, in the wisdom of taking ownership over FLEX and spewing forward rant and riff about how freakin fantastic FLEX really is. I could sit here now and spin a yarn or two about how FLEX did everything from rapid development through to curing my addiction to Viagra.
Adobe FLEX, is one of these products that can reshape and redefine context under the guise of being passive while unbeknown to others, it's quite aggressive in the way it hijacks segments of use.
FLEX in general is a mutated composition sitting between traditional web application and desktop client experience; it can be equally powerful and yet at times can be totally unforgiving.

 JD on EP: Why Flex Matters
I'm very sure that Flex 2 see widespread adoption and Adobe appears to be on the right path.
Adobe already has a significant footprint against Sparkle, and providing free tools for the Flex 2 platform is a great step, but they need to capture a bigger piece of mind share from grass roots developers.
Posted by: Troy at March 15, 2006 12:50 PM The problem is in the name: Flex does not tell me anything.

 Flex Mentallo - Oracle Files
Together, they were happy and carefree...until the day Flex uncovered the web of deceit that comprised the Secret Agency, the Men from N.O.W.H.E.R.E., and the Pentagon Horror, all of whom worked together as part of a clandestine global conspiracy to eradicate abnormality and impose their own "rational behavior" on the people of Earth.
Learning that the Pentagon's very shape was crucial to the Agency's schemes, Flex spent fruitless weeks trying to shatter its magic by turning it into a circle using his muscle might.
Forced to look into the tears on their sleeves, he was stripped of his powers and instantly transported to the Tearoom of Despair, an extradimensional restaurant staffed by grotesquely maudlin waitresses, a place where hope lay as cold and flat as a week-old order of fries.

 Eight the hard way: 2003 Joe Weider's Ms. Olympia report - Contest Flex - Find Articles
THE ULTIMATE BODYBUILDING GAMBLE Appropriately enough in the mecca of money, the parlance of gambling--specifically, the game of craps--provided Lenda Murray with the perfect bywords in her quest to win yet another Ms.
As familiar as that term is to those who roll the dice, "eight the hard way" has a far different meaning when applied to Murray.
Of course, there was also the looming question as to whether she could once again reach the level of conditioning she had achieved in 2002.

The gamble, not really a gamble as I know GS would have done everything to get me on the right board no matter how long it took, paid off the first day.
They pop off the water with a vengance, and the flex tips soften up the chatter and landings at high speed as well.

 Al-Ahram Weekly | Front Page | Allawi's greatest gamble
Iraq's Health Ministry said on Wednesday that 21 people had been killed in clashes in Baghdad, Basra, Diwaniya and Najaf with dozens wounded in the past 24 hours.
Allawi clearly wants to flex his muscles and restore order to an increasingly chaotic country, thereby enhancing his own chances of staying in power.
But as rebel attacks spread to virtually every Sunni and Shia town, it is unclear if such a move, possible only with American military backing, would mark the threshold he has been striving for in establishing the credibility of his government or signal the beginning of the end of it.
