    Hello Sujit;

    The links for the videos (www.geekzguru.net) from mayan k. do not work, is the website down or are there new links? I went to Mayan’s blog, but could not download files that were available or see everything correctly. I could view a couple of his videos at https://admin.adobe.acrobat.com/_a295153/p77178814/
    (this was for one video) but this didn’t allow me to download the tutorial files.

    Mayan’s videos are great starting points for FB.

    Thanks for the work on your blog,
    John D.

    Hello Sujit;

    Please disregard my post. Mayan said his site may have gone down temporarily, plus after resetting my router everything works.

    Thanks again for all the helpful FB 4 info.

    I’ve followed your tutorial on the HTTPService for Yahoo Weather using FlashBuiler 4, but cannot get any results.

    Also, I tried following your tutorial for Yahoo Weather replacing it with a Twitter call, but cannot get any results with that either.

    In the Yahoo Weather tutorial, you show a input field and button, but no reference to it in the instructions.

    I was wonder if you can do a tutorial on retrieving twitters for a username?

    Newbie at Flex, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Sujith
    Yesteday i attended , adobe flash developer summit , it was a nice summit.
    I am very new to this flex technology , from coming there , i got a good idea about all the technology used.

    I am currently working with flex and blazeDs with spring in bacl end.
    My project is some thing like stoke screener for Google beta version.
    In this i am facing some problem, which is i am getting nearly 10,000 data from Db and before plotting the data as line chart.
    i am removing the disabled range data from the collected data from db
    by using
    hAxis.disabledRanges=ignoreDates;
    in this ignoreDates is the array which contains the ignored Dates.
    IF i skip this step graph plotting is very fast , but when i have this step , its taking nearly 2 to 3 mins time to replot the graph.
    Please let me know any option is there to slove this problem.

    Hi Jeffrey,

    In the sample the Button and the Input field are generated by Flash Builder for us. If you want to communicate with twitter APIs try creating a AIR based Flex application, because Twitter still doesn’t have crossdomain policy yet.

    Hope this helps.
