Snackr is an RSS ticker that pulls random items from your feeds and scrolls them across your desktop. When you see a title that looks interesting, you can click on it to pop up the item in a window. Snackr was built using Adobe Flex 3 and Adobe AIR 1.0.
Snackr can run on Windows, Mac OS X amd Linux. If you’re running Windows or Mac OS X, just click the “Install Now” button on the home page of Snackr. If you are running Linux, you have to download Adobe AIR runtime and Snackr installer manually.
Open Snackr, you will see the app at the bottom of desktop. You will be asked to add feeds, import an OPML file or get started with default feeds. After adding feeds or importing OPML flies, you’ll see the feed news scrolling on the desktop. You can set the ticker speed and position on the preferences pane. The scrolled entries are small entries and clicking on an item of interest stops the scrolling and reveals an animated balloon window with more content and a link to the sites original post.

I firstly recommend you download the desktop app so that you can access to Ubuket from your desktop. To install Ubuket, you have to install Adobe AIR first.
Open Ubuket on your desktop and log in your account, search music, radio, videos, or photos. You can add the search result to your playlist or album.

Google Maps API for Flash
Google released Google Maps API for flash. This API lets Flex developers embed Google Maps in Flash applications. Similar to the JavaScript version, this ActionScript API provides a number of utilities for manipulating and adding content to maps through a variety of services, enabling you to embed robust, interactive maps applications on your website.
“Flash graphics can be used for each tile layer, marker and info window - opening up possibilities like dynamic shading, shadowing, animation, and video. When the user zooms the map, magnification changes happen smoothly and place names fade in. After the user drags a marker, it gently bounces to a halt.” ( Via Google Maps API Blog )

You need to register an account before you make money with it. But I noticed that they do not request your PayPal account when you submit your information. So how could they send payment? Maybe when your money reaches $10, they will ask your PayPal account.
