Modern Flex Developer – A Video for 30onair

by Josh Tynjala

Not long ago, Adobe’s Ted Patrick introduced 30onair, a community video project promoting Adobe technologies. What a great idea, I thought, but I didn’t have any good ideas right away. Thankfully, Phillip Kerman made enough WHY videos to keep us entertained for years.

Finally, I decided to show my love of Flex with a little song. Without further ado, here’s Modern Flex Developer, a parody of Gilbert and Sullivan’s Major General’s Song.

You don’t seem to have Adobe Flash Player 9 installed. It is required to view this content!

Enjoy!

  2. Sweet.

    Maybe we can get a live performance at 360|Flex San Jose? :)

  3. Careful what you ask for, Tom. I might just do it. I have four years of experience acting on stage and a quick song is nothing compared to a show over an hour long.

  4. Hahaha great job dude. I love this song!

    “In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
    He is the very model of a modern Flex Developer”
