Last night I attended my first CFUG meeting in Sydney and not only did I get to see some Central development but also Breeze Live in action for the first time. Admitedly there were bandwith problems which were later resolved by reducing the screen resolution but this can hardly be blamed on Breeze! I was probably more impressed with Breeze Live than Central to be honest as I am still trying to decide how useful Central will be and after a discussion on Flex last night I am left wondering if I will ever use, or develop, for either?

Andrew Muller's presentation on Central gave me an insight into the development process for both MX and MX 2004 and how Flash Remoting can be used to build Central Applications, another grey area for me and something I am hoping to learn more about from these meetings.

I finally got to meet the Goog Meister, Geoff Bowers who let me in on some incredible stats about 'goog' and made sure that Andrew's Breeze presentation was at least audible for those of you in NSW trying to get a sneak peek of Andrew's current Central application he has been developing.

Thanks to the guys for asking me along and see you next time!
