On AIR with Flex

Its been just over a year since I had the privilege of joining the India Evangelism Team at Adobe. Had an opportunity to speak at reputed conferences, visit institutions, work with a super cool team on some amazing pieces of work and meet most of you!

I will now be moving on to the Flash Runtime team within Adobe. What this means is, I will not appear on stage at the frequency I was, but work more on the background with the teams that enable you build all those awesome interactive experiences! I also plan to keep my blog and twitter stream flowing, so don’t drop your bookmarks yet

Looking for exciting opportunities ahead!

I just acquired a new domain, iNoel.in. Found my existing domain, ImmanuelNoel.com, to be too long to be key’d in to the address bar .

I plan to use iNoel.in as,

• An alternate URL for my website / blog. The new (other) URL for my blog is, Blog.iNoel.in
• A URL shortening service for my own needs.

My existing domain, immanuelnoel.com is still going to be the primary domain. Your old bookmarks should not be affected.

Walked into small and big companies in the past, but the day I first entered Adobe, Bangalore, I vowed to myself to enter through the orange doors of my dream company with a valid access card in hand. Glad I was able to do that on 8th November 2010.

All thanks for Balaji, my senior at college, for referring me to Adobe, Aparna for leading me through the HR formalities seamlessly, Arijit, Ramesh, Harish, Praveen, Radhakrishna and Sourab for the interviews and for taking time off to give clarity on my job description.

The day of my interviews, I was super-excited with people like Ramesh and Harish – Awesome people whom I unquestionably adore – on the other side of the table. Irrespective of whether I make it into the Evangelism team, or Adobe for that matter, just having a one on one conversation with these people gave me crazy numbers of ideas, opinions and insights. It was indeed an excellent learning opportunity. Interviews, are just not the word !

As life has its say, my official birthday, October 13th turned out to be the best one ever. On the day, with all formalities completed, I was finally offered to work with the India Evangelism team as a Platform Evangelist .

This post has been considerably delayed, but better late than never. I am now 2 months into the job, and loving every bit of it, working with an awesome team. How else could it be, working at the Flex Factory !

With all said, looking forward to dive deeper into the job. The best i could possibly imagine.
