Sakura_flash lite screensaver

Just design a beautiful Flash lite 1.1, Sakura, Screensaver 🙂 .
You can download full version here, have fun.

About Sakura

The cherry blossom (Sakura) is Japan’s unofficial national flower. It has been celebrated for many centuries and takes a very prominent position in Japanese culture.

here are many dozens of different cherry tree varieties in Japan, most of which bloom for just a couple of days in spring. The Japanese celebrate that time of the year with hanami (cherry blossom viewing) parties under the blooming trees.

Japan’s most beloved variety is the Somei Yoshino. Its flowers are nearly pure white, tinged with the palest pink, especially near the stem. The flowers bloom, and usually fall (or “scatter”, 散る [chiru], in Japanese) within a week, before the leaves come out. Therefore, the trees look nearly white from top to bottom.

Its really beautiful flowers 🙂

Amp’d reinvents Motorola Q with a Flash Lite UI

motorola Q 

Via Mariam “Youth-oriented mobile carrier Amp’d got their first smartphone today in the Motorola Q – but this isn’t quite the Q you know from Verizon and Sprint. Amp’d has completely redone the user interface in Adobe’s Flash Lite, into an animated carnival of … well, it looks a lot like Amp’d’s animated Amp’d Live interface on their other phones. The Q also plays Amp’d TV and all of Amp’d’s content – a real breath of fresh air compared to other carriers who don’t have versions of their popular entertainment apps for smartphones. And it’s still a Q, which means that you can send e-mail, sync with your PC, and maybe even get some work done.”

Amp’d’s Q will sell for $199 sometime in April. Get it at get.ampd.com.

Its really great to see Flash lite UI everywhere as designers can play a lot and create more interactive experiences.
