most ActionScript developers who keep up on the blog world already know this, but i thought i'd help spread the word: ted patrick's sample code service, "IFBIN" is now free and open source. if you are looking for high-quality ActionScript and Flex examples, you should definitely consult IFBIN. examples are accessed through a small IFBIN client that you must install, but the installation is well worth it. (according to ted, in the future the IFBIN client will be deployed via Apollo, the upcoming desktop version of Flash Player).
