Hello everybody.
I am trying to take an application in flash cs5 and convert it to an iphone
app. The app allows one to use red5 media server and broadcast from the
iphone on a website.
Can anybody help with this.
I have the .fla file and I tried pasting it into a new iphone document in
flash cs5.
My skype is hr.soltani
Thanks

Sorry, I didn't intend to mislead. I don't hire programmers.
My only hiring has been in Health Sciences and I don't do that any more.
What I meant was that when I do hire for anything including home maintenance
or snow removal it isn't just the technical competency that is considered
and I know from experience that is true in most all hiring environments.
When I did hire though, competency was only one of many considerations.
Sometimes even it was less important than enthusiasm, willingness and my
perception as to how they might fit with the current staff group.
As blind people I think we are often disadvantaged with respect to personal
networking. Whereas many people might make connections on the golf course or
hockey arena we are much more limited in those environments. Often we may be
partially isolated by a guide or significant other attending with us.
I have been fortunate insofar as I am a licensed Physical Therapist which is
a field mostly under supplied so getting hired when I wanted work hasn't
been an undue challenge beyond getting licensure in the required
jurisdiction. Except for a few major centers there are usually more jobs
than personnel to fill them. Because of that no one has ever been interested
in any of my other qualifications, my value to most organizations is as a
Physical Therapist. We are retiring more than we presently graduate. When I
apply for work I have to be considered seriously because often there are so
few applications. I also bring a trail of good references but one needs to
get to the point where references will be checked. This is another advantage
of recognized education.
