Flex Showcase

I have been majorly out of touch of Flash and other Adobe (or Macromedia :) technologies. One of the things that I started studying but could not continue was FLEX.

Just stumbled upon one the sites I used to refer for the latest in Flex, Flex.org and it now has a “Showcase” section that lists a variety of public-facing Flex apps. Great reference for Flex apps.
