Adobe Flex IDE free to unemployed developers

I saw this and, as a T-shirt wearing Adobe technology fan, I thought it worth broadcasting…

According to an article on MacWorld – http://www.macworld.co.uk/procreative/news/index.cfm?newsid=25161 – “If you’re a Web developer and you’ve recently lost your job, Adobe is offering you a free copy of its Flex Builder software to learn while you’re unemployed.

Flex Builder is an IDE (integrated development environment) offering coding, interface design and debugging tools for Adobe’s Flex Web development language”.

Developers interested in taking advantage of this should contact Andrew Shorten, platform evangelist at Adobe via email at shorten [at] adobe.com, on Twitter or via his blog.
