Simeon Says

I am really digging the new theme on my blog and so I have decide to add some personal touches. I do a lot with the Adobe tools. To say that I am excited about the technology is a ridiculous understatement. Hopefully if you are reading this you have found that I occasionally say something useful and thats why you are still here. Anyhow, I have decided its finally time to do a little self promotion. I have finally used some of the logos that Adobe said I can use to promote myself. As you can see in the header of the site I am both a certified developer and a certified instructor for Adobe. I am certified to teach all the Flex courses as well as both the Flex with AIR and AJAX AIR classes. On the left of the site you will notice that I am the Manager of the Portland RIA User Group (PDXRIA) and I am also an Adobe Community Expert for the Flex tools.

Those who know me will know that I talk (a lot) but hopefully they can confirm that I am not boastful. I am proud of my accomplishments and to be a part of a great community. This year I am going to focus on how I can give back. I have built up a pretty good head of steam blogging so far this year. I hope I can keep it up. And after taking last year off from all conferences requiring travel, I have submitted talks to several of my favorite conferences and hopefully will be able to share with the community through those.

So without making any resolutions or false promises, here is to 2009.
