If you have only just heard about Flash on the Beach, then you must have been on a desert island! Flash on the Beach conference is the place to go for design, technical and inspiration if you are a web developer. It has grown quickly and gained fantastic status as the 'must go to' conference around. With FOTB06, FOTB07 & FOTB08 being such massive successes, this year we have a hard act to follow, but FOTB09 will be even better!

Nearly 50 of the world's most talented designers, developers, creatives, film makers and artists presenting on 3 tracks over 3 full days. Flash on the Beach brings together the most creative, technical, inspirational, awe-inspiring, educational and entertaining industry leading speakers in the rich media industry.

Not just for Flash.. Don't think of FOTB as just another Flash conference. The Flash bit of the title is more of a mentality or vibe than just a software product. What we mean by that is that Flash is one of the coolest web tools around. It breeds a mentality and vibe that sets it apart.

The Flash community is very supportive of each other. They share, talk, blog, experiment and share some more! They do not limit themselves solely to the product called Flash either. They design, create and deliver some of the best experiences on the web using a wide variety of tools and skills.

Don't think that Flash on the Beach is only about Flash, appearing at FOTB in the past we have had the usual suspects - Flash, Flex, AIR, and then some. Photoshop, After Effects, Processing and many more. If you are a tech-head or a creative, and you need a fix of creative inspiration, or to know the latest how-to's, Flash on the Beach is where you'll get it.

(don't forget the pre-event burgers too)

    FlashBrighton: Making a Flash game in 10 days

    4km away in Hove

    The hobbit Tim Baggins stared into the deep, dark wood, and curled his toes nervously. Dusty cobwebs hung from the twisted boughs and not a single shaft of sunlight penetrated into the gloom. The air hung thick and motionless like treacle. 'We're not going in there... are we?' He turned and looked up at the dwarf king Owen, son of Thráin.

    DevEvening: Christmas CodeFest

    34km away in Woking

    This time we're trying something different:We all learn in different ways. While it can be good to learn by hearing people present and demonstrate new techniques, it can also be good to learn by seeing how different people solve the same problem.  That's what we hope to do at the CodeFest.The plan is for everyone to write automated players for a simple game.  Don't worry if this sounds complicated, it will only involve implementing an interface containing 4 methods.
