BlogShift!

So… If you still want to see quizzes/snippets posted frequently here… post a comment… because I need to know that people still want quizzes and snippets in order to keep working on this blog.

If not enough people respond in the comments I will slowly migrate back to my shapevent blog :

http://shapevent.com/sketchbook/

I would like 20+ comments on this blog post in order to motiviate me to keep writing quizzes and posting snippets… otherwise I will only post when an idea comes to mind.

The idea behind this blog has always been 15-30 minutes a day on a snippet or quiz. I did this for a little over a year straight resulting in about 400 posts :

http://actionsnippet.com/?page_id=549

This blog will definitely not die… especially when cs5 is released, but I want to get feedback to get an idea of how many readers this blog actually has…. so please post a comment if you’d like me to keep up the 15-30 mins a day on quizzes and snippets.

Thanks,

Z!

[EDIT - wow thanks for all the kind remarks and constructive crits. I really needed to see that this blog was actually useful for more than just me. I'll post a new snippet first thing tomorrow!. Thanks very much to everyone who commented :D so far]

    I have your blog subscribed to my Google Reader. It’s definitely one of the best Actionscript blogs ever. Thank You.

    Reading your blog is a daily routine, allthough sometimes far above my head. It keeps me looking in directions I would not discover myself. I am especially interested in QuickBox2d. kind regards, Wieb

    The quizzes are nice, but the snippets are great. And I definitely appreciate all the work, examples, and posts on QB2D. Either way you go, I’ll keep readin’…

    Actionsnippet is my favorite, thanks for all your great work.

  18. Posted March 1, 2010 at 2:16 am | Permalink

    Keep actionsnippet online !
    One of the most interesting place in discutions and experiments. snippets, QBox2D … ;)

  19. Posted March 1, 2010 at 2:28 am | Permalink

    Yep, me wants quizzes!

    I Zevan, i think actionsnippet is one of the best inspirational resources for creative flash devevelopers, but i love shapevent too :P .
    So what if you continue making pretty things on “shapevent” and use actionsnippet for explain some dirty tricks later. for ex. Your post about voxels in shapevent and explanations in actionsnippet.

    I think the most important thing is to continue getting fun. Go to shapevent and make the things you can show in Medialab. And later, if you whish, tell the others how to make the trick, and open your posts to comments for alternative solutions.

    Good luck!
    I’ll be watching you on shapevent or actionsnippet.

    As your blog name implies it really is about the snippets. The snippets you’ve posted here are for me a very valuable treasure chest. I tend to come back and browse thru them when ever I got some spare time and want to try out something new. And to be honest if I had to remove every other RSS-feed I’ve got just to keep this one, I probably would. Keep it flowing Z!

    ohh come on Zevan. :)
    you’ll get more than that, i’m sure about it.
    your blog is like a precious stone in my google reader ;)
    keep up the good work.

    Actionsnippet is great! Please keep doing the snippets, I have learnt a lot from the website. It’s so good because it’s so focused on the code snippets and not a complicated tutorial that you can’t be bothered reading, us developers love snippets and I would be truly gutted to see this site fade away!!! :)

    I am subscribed to your blog by means of google reader and every time your actionsnippet has a new entry, I click it first. I didn’t get none of the quizzes with full marks, but I have learned a lot from them and your snippets have a lot of valuable information, so please keep them coming. Where did you learn how to make that static class’ initialization?

    I’m a bit of a lurker, but I find your code snippets and quiz questions force me to stretch my application of actionscript quite a lot.

    Here’s hoping you keep them coming.

    Z! Keep it up! I love the learning from your snippets and quizzes. I check back here nearly every day.

    Thank you for all the time you’ve put into it!

  57. Posted March 3, 2010 at 3:56 pm | Permalink

    YES YES YES!

    I enjoy the snippets more than the quiz, but both are interesting. I want to follow and devote a solid block (even if it’s small) to play with code regularly. You’re an inspiration! Keep it up!

  58. Posted March 5, 2010 at 7:39 am | Permalink

    I like the snippets. But I mostly come here for QB2D specific snippets.
