I finally put this link in here because I can never find the Tech Notes on MM's web site. I *know* it's a simple URL, but my mind goes blank under pressure. And searching for "Tech Notes" on MM's web site is among the more dissappointing endevors one can engage in.

Danny Engelman. Co-founder of perhaps the most helpful, civil, and well-moderated online community there is. The AWARE List is an online community of over 600 Authorware developers of all skill levels. All developers are encouraged to join the community and participate. No questions or contributions are too simple or too tough, and I'll just about eat my hat if you don't get a helpful response right away.

If so, you will be prompted to do so.

Veteran developer Wade Wells offering of various Xtras for Authorware and Director. Cool Xtras include "AppSafe", "DataSafe", and "Profusion." Well worth a visit!

A nice web site put together by Steve Howard -- Team Macromedia volunteer and heckuva nice guy.

Read Steve's account of life during and after Hurricane Katrina!

Steve has nice links and resources related to Authorware, emphasizing LMS, AICC and SCORM resources. His web site is also a good source of the latest EuroTAAC news.

Gary Smith has been developing and contributing some of the most outstanding and useful add-in utilties for Authorware since...well...forever, it seems. Many (if not most) of Gary's products are free for you to use, but his paid, registered products are well worth the modest investment. Listen...if I can buy it and not get yelled at by the missus, then you can afford it too ;-)

These guys make outstanding Xtras to support many functions, including sound, email, FTP, OS and Win controls and much much more! Solid products at very reasonable prices.

Lynda Weinman's research and knowledge of imaging for the web is truly astounding! I had the pleasure of hearing Lynda speak to a Macromedia users group meeting at Macromedia's headquarters in San Francisco, and I can tell you that she really knows her stuff! The Tips, Downloads, and Web Color resources on her web site provide you with quick, easy-to-use and easy-to-apply information about optimizing the look and efficiency of your graphics. Many other resources are available on her web site, including CD ROMS, subscription online training, and live training events and workshops.

Apurva is one talented guy! His site features outstanding technical references and examples of UCD/U32 and ActiveX development as well as Developer Bios, a Talent Agency, and hosted duscussions.

Erik Lord's A'Ware Tips website has several helpful examples for incorporating special features into Authorware applications such as Emailing, FTP file transfer and more. This website has an especially handy and useful FAQ page containing links to various technotes and information.

The Wayback Machine is hosted by the Internet Archive, an organization dedicated to archiving and preserving digital information. If you want to see the way a web site looked in the past (even your own!) check here.

Fonts! Interesting and ecclectic web site that just also happens to have great (and *FREE*) downloadable fonts and font resources.

Disneyland Alumni, Cast Members, and general enthusiasts may appreciate this underground, behind-the-scenes source of Disney info.

Okay, I've been here and now I've officially seen everything. What a relief.

This Mike Bray is not me, but he has consistently Googled out just above me for several years (when searching for "Mike Bray" on Google). I do not know Mike Bray of MikeBray.com personally, but he looks like a nice fellow, and I'd almost certainly buy a house from him were I ever to up and move from California to Iowa (not likely).
