So I’m stuck not going to Flash Forward this year and chances are most of the rest of you weren’t able to go, but don’t mope there are plenty of places online to go and check out the festivities. You can goto the official Flash Forward blog to get the official low down (like Download Squad did), but it’s probably better to see what developers around the world are saying at the Macromedia aggregator. They setup a special Flash Forward Smart category that sorts all developer posts into a neatly organized page with direct links to all the important people. After that head over to the winners’ circle and surf through the Flash Film Festival awards page. Here you can check out the best Flashers from around the world including FlashInsider favorites like TypeDrawing and the U.K. elections application. Finish your personal Flash Film Festival by looking at past winners on the awards page archive and by listening to Flash Forward presentation podcasts. Remember just cause your stuck outside the conference doesn’t mean you can’t save up for the next one.
