Joshua announces Project MaiTai, a visual tool for creating interactive graphical art
As many of you may know, user interface design is a passion of mine. I want software that both looks pretty and acts well.

In the article you'll learn what you need to get started using it and how it works. Check it out and let me know what you think. Also let me know what other articles you'd like to see....

Hey guys. A while back I started talking about something called a MiniApp and presented several examples (Weather, Christmas, Storm, and RSI Buster).

I have more time to finish up the next MiniApp....
