SPP2 Reading List Task

I don't really know if this is on the readin list but its on vlp and David Downes told us to read so i have done and its turning into my flash bible.

Its called Using ActionScript 3.0 Components and it is really helpful when using actionscript 3 rather that actionscrpt 2, this covers all the components within the cs3 program so theres everything you neeed to know, this is handy as when you have gone from knewing the old flash porgram its difficult when you are tryin to do something and you know what it is and how to do it in the old flash well this guide tell you exactly what to do. Another reason why i found this guide usefull as it has screenshots and the information is very clear and easy to follow, it contains screenshots and code that you can use to play around with until you get the right code your looking for which is very handy when your learning a new program. i used this alot when doing my first peice of coursework and it really helped me get to grips withe be new flash. another factor that was helpful for me is that its online all the time this means i dont have to carry a heavy book around all day everyday its always there also i have printed a hard copy as i am less likely to learn from ths when its on the computer as i will just use the bits i need and leave the rest so with having a hard copy as well i can go throw it properly and highlight the useful bits that i may need in the future.
