Finally get to write some stuff about the event … the last days really have been crazy ! It was intensive but rewarding 
Let me give you an overview of what i think are the highlights of Max 2007 Chicago.
- Thermo, the RIA designer tool certainly impressed everybody. Even though it’s created for designers, I think even developers will love Thermo. Check out the screenshots at Adobe Labs.
- Buzzword and Adobe Share : It’s great to see the Saas strategy is getting shape ! Share documents online using Adobe Share, and possible the entry point of all these great services that might come in the future. Buzzword, the text editor build on top of AIR, is probably a great example of such a service.
- CoCoMo : One of my personal favorites ! Flex components that allows you to integrate Acrobat Connect functionality into your own application is just way to cool ! This one is going to be a hit !
- Flex Builder goes Linux !
- LiveCycle developers @ Max : it was impressive to see the growth of LC ES developers attendees. The “Meet the LiveCycle team” session was “sold out” .
- The new Adobe Developer website has been announced … Check it out : http://developer.adobe.com
- Pacifica : High quality VOIP with the flash player ! Just imagine how this feature can improve the online shopping experience. Whenever you get stuck, you can talk to a representative just by clicking 1 button …
At the moment i’m in the airport of Chicago, going to Ottawa. Next week you’ll find me at Max Barcelona … Will post later this week with some of the must see sessions for Barcelona !
