Oslo Flash Platform User Group
Published August 4th, 2007 in: OFPUG
Update: The group is now active! See: Flash User Group Norway
A couple of years back I attended a Macromedia User Group (MMUG) meeting here in Oslo. The meeting was great, but as a Flash person I felt a little off, as the majority of the people there seemed to relate more to the CF/DW category, and so I never went back. Instead, I've been following their activities via the website from time to time, and noticed that the activity level of the group has been decreasing steadily for a while. Last time I checked in, the group had changed the name to Adobe User Group (tp reflect the Adobe takeover), but it didn't look like they have had any meetings for well over a year.
So this had me thinking: Considering the difficulties of landing Flash work in Oslo, maybe it's time we tried to get a user group started and really push the Flash Platform here in Oslo?! I for one think we need to join forces if we're going to get the wheels rolling.
For starters I think it needs to be a Flash Platform User Group, not an Adobe User Group. If you are interested in taking part you should email me straight away. If you want to get involved in the managing aspects, then that's super cool :) But even if you simply just want to come along for the ride, please get in touch and tell me. I'll be spending some time this autumn getting it all together.
