Nifty Air Functions

So after reading through the AIR Ajax Tutorial, I decided to play around a bit with AIR and its asynchronis abilities. I created a small application that simply tells the user the status of the network connection by checking an RSS feed from macromedia's site. Below are two screen shots of the small application (note the highlighted sections):
And when the network connection is disabled....

I've also started to play with SQLite and AIR. After some struggle to determine how to execute queries from AIR, and looking at this tutorial, I ended up looking elsewhere for a simple way to manipulate data in the SQLite database. I found an Air-based SQLite Admin Application and have been familiarizing myself with SQLite syntax, which is not too different from any other SQL langauge. I plan on writing my next small application to modify and update data in a local SQLite database. Thus far I have a small table created called 'Contacts,' and I plan on using this table for my test application.

Until then, I will continue poking around different AIR tutorials and web blogs to see what other things are possible.
