Flint Particles are very cool
A very nice guy called Richard Lord has created a brilliant light weight particle engine for Flash called Flint. It integrates neatly with Away 3D and Papervision but has its own rendering engine built in. I was lucky enough to catch his session at Flash on the Beach. I was seriously impressed with what it can do out of the box and even more impressed by the ease with which it can be extended. Oh and it does a nice job of handling flocking behavior too. I would think that this is going to be hot.
