Stop Encapsulating Yourself!!!
To start, I’ll explain the inspiration behind this post. I recently had the pleasure of being onboard the RIAdventure conference cruise. Being that it was my first Flash/Flex conference, I could tell after day one that I had been missing a really, really big piece of my life as a developer. I feel ashamed to say it, but my time prior to this was spent hacking away from the sidelines. Here is a small Q/A I came up with…
-
Do I browse every forum and blog searching for an answer, but don’t find one, then when I finally solve it, do I submit the solution?
-
Express your gratitude with a simple response. It’ll go further you think.

-
Is there a limited history of my work available to the public?
-
So you write top secret code, but still find time to update your twitter status with useless information. The top dogs in our industry gain a following, because they have something to follow. If you have nothing, recycle, and try throwing a link to a good article every once in awhile.

Have I ever been to a conference?

For super introverts, find your local user group, and get involved. For curious introverts to total extroverts, book the next conference possible!
