First Adobe AIR Application (Flash)

So I decided today to get more familiar with Flex/AIR development, so I've created this little thing here:

http://demonfire-development.com/Browserlet.air (Requires Adobe AIR, but it should install that for you I think)

Here's a screenshot, there's really not much to it:

After making this, I can see that AIR is quite an interesting tool. It lets you do some pretty cool things, it's basically like using HTML and JavaScript to make desktop applications, only it's MXML and ActionScript. (MXML and ActionScript provide better control over layout though :D)

Not much to this yet, mostly just a combination of a few of the examples in Tour de Flex. I am thinking I will continue with this for a little while to just get more used to creating user-friendly applications with Flex/AIR.

When you use it, you'll see it's not very user friendly, so if you have ideas on how to make it nicer, let me know.
 
Interesting solution. On the basis of Adobe AIR can be a fairly complex and interesting structure, its potential for creating multimedia applications are huge.
