FreshAIRapps

FreshAIRapps is my new site dedicated to Adobe AIR applications of all types together with tutorials and resources for the AIR developer.

It is built using ExpressionEngine content management system with a few custom built modules like the AJAX star rating component. The site has a number of CSS 3 styles attached so if you are running a nice new CSS3 compliant browser you will see cool rounded corners and shadows.

I launched the site quietly so that I could iron out any bugs and slowly build up a following and write the reviews. I try and personally review as many apps as I can by installing them and then trying them out, while offering both a design and technical opinion.

Of course my CSS Em Calculator is listed along with some fantastic apps created by the community.

So go and check out http://freshairaps.com and enter the world of AIR.

Update

Well my little side project has been getting rather a strong following of late. Today saw freshAIRapps get featured on both ReadWriteWeb and Lifehacker which subsequently managed to explode my new SliceHost VPS. So after playing with apache settings and some great help from Jared at Slicehost hopefully it is back working.
