Sprout is a new online application designed to make the process of creating, publishing and tracking flash based widgets an easy experience. You don’t have to be a developer to get started. It’s meant to be a simple tool for designers. Sprout is now in private beta and should be publicly available within the next few weeks.
I have tested the tool and quickly made this simple slide-show widget:
Sprout has partnered up with Clearspring, Gigya, and SpringWidgets to provide both easy distribution and tracking/analytics. Sprout creators can track the usage of not only entire sprouts but the elements, such as buttons, within those sprouts. They can also use the application to make changes to sprouts that have already been distributed across the web.
Pretty cool!

MacBreak is a regularly published video about everything Mac, including hardware, software, pro apps, and tips. I am proud to be a part their production team (PixelCorps) during coverage of Macworld Expo, January 14 - 18, 2008. (Look for my name as Segment Producer and Editor on episodes 106, 112, 113 as well as Production assistant on episodes 107, 114 and 115)
If you didn’t get to the San Francisco event, MacBreak’s coverage is a good way to see what was happening. You can subscribe (for free) to their video podcast through itunes or view them directly on the PixelCorps website. Here is a list of the MacBreak episodes produced during the Expo:
