Matt Fisher - HTML5 for Flash Developers

Matt Fisher , Senior Developer at Jam3 (www jam3.com), is passionate about technology. Whether it is building large-scale multi-user online applications or programming a model plane to fly itself, he brings that passion with him to every project. An interactive web and systems developer by day and an electronics-obsessed person by night, Matt's diverse and highly-valued skill set makes him stand out from the crowd. Matt's fascination with technology and programming began at a young age and today, most of his technical and programming skills are self-taught. In the recent past, Matt has also been a part-time professor at both colleges and universities in Toronto, as well as an advisory board member. His website, www.fisherinnovation.com, gives a detailed description of his work.

I would like to thank all of my colleagues at Jam3 (www.jam3.com), my close friends, family, and of course my beautiful better half, Lindsay Munro, for all of their inspiration and support during the time spent writing this book. It would have been impossible without all of you.
