Does Flex suck?

Made you look.  Of course Flex doesn’t suck.  Javascript doesn’t suck.  Silverlight doesn’t suck.  VC++ doesn’t suck.  Slipping and falling in the shower does suck.

Unless, you are a Silverlight fanboy, then Flex might not be viewed happily.  If you dislike Javascript for some reason, then and so forth.

Flex is used broadly and is popular.  Silverlight not as much.  Now with HTML 5, what should you use to build your games for distribution.

For now, you should consider the use of Silverlight if you think that Windows Phone 7 has a chance in the marketplace, if you don’t please leave your comment below, avoid curse words and spam (which I will still publish but will remove the curse words and advertisement links if it makes sense).

So I am sticking with Silverlight and HTML 5, no Flex here, plenty of other sites out there.

Bottom line, I am betting that Windows Phone 7 will be able to carve out a place in the marketplace and I am going to dig in with this blog to help you, someone I assume has to work with Flex, Javascript or Space Alien script, but need to keep up to speed on Silverlight can hit this site for a quick fix.

If you think Microsoft is a large sleepy, greedy, corporation ready to suck your brains and cash out of your pocket, then this might be a site for you follow as well.  However, if you do have spare cash, please contribute to the Boys and Girls Club of America.  I only accept 4 shot expressos.
