Design Pattern

How many programmers in this world screams that “every program is a problem”? I say many. Because every step in writing a code is a struggle one finds in early stages of development.

IndiaMMUG Hit Count increasing

I was browsing through the referal list and the web statistic of this site; well, the hit count have increased about 10 fold since last month. The site is registering an average of about 2000 per day. And one of the nice thing was that it was receiving some kick ass referal from the likes of StopDesign CSS Examples. This link is the second best referal after the recent site recognition from CSSVault. Hmm, I just realized there are lots, so let me stop here.
Arindam’s Tween Class Tutorial is the most standalone linked article from other blogs, specially from many international blogs with non-english language. Well, the funny part was that the most search string that hit here was “macromedia flash paper serial”, others are punctuated with “animation_courses_india”, “arindam biswas”, “india mm forum flash brajeshwar”, “indian flash group brajeshwar”, “technopoint multimedia” and many others. I am sure, our blog is becoming , eeeerrrrr, cool! If the usage by country graph is correct, India have 1% while, US have 17.83% and the rest shared across the globe.

The ASBroadcaster object itself, despite its presumed intimidation, is
simply a generic object with one method, initialize. This is used on other
objects to transform those objects into broadcasting capable objects. In
doing so, it adds three new methods and a new property to the transformed
object. These methods are addListener, removeListener, broadcastMessage and
the property, _listeners. addListener lets you add a listener to your new
broadcasting object. removeListener lets you remove one. broadcastMessage is
the command that the initialized object runs to generate an event to be sent
out to the listeners (like onMouseDown) while _listeners is a list of all
the listeners associated with the broadcast object. So, for the usage of
ASBroadcaster, we get:
