(This serial could always be compiled into a book at a later date, as I think it would be pretty successful).

What I find most interesting about LFFS is the teacher/student relationship between you and Scott. I’ve felt for awhile that the best way of learning any new framework or language is through a “guild” style pairing of mentors and apprentices, with apprentices moving their way up the guild and teaching more junior members. Having a more senior resource to answer questions and provide code samples, or even just to discuss meta-points about the framkework/language, tends to flatten the learning curve. Expanding on LFFS to enable, or at least encourage, the creation of a Flex learning community like that would be incredibly helpful.

It seems like beginners are more likely to start learning from books than web sites, and more likely than people who know what they are doing already. At least that was the case with me, but there weren’t nearly the amount of blogs and online resources back then.
