        This is a fun little project I worked on for my personal website.  It is a flash application that reads an xml config file representing the
        structure of the site and displays it in an interactive manner.  It's more of a "oh neat" thing than something that's
        really useful, but it was fun to work on and gave me a chance to learn some new technologies.

		It's written in object orientated Actionscript 2.  I detest the flash authoring environment, so I worked in eclipse with the ASDT plugin and
		used mtasc to compile.  There's an ant build script for my entire website that builds the app, copies files to a staging server for debugging,
		and eventually publishes it to the live web server.  Once you've set up a build script to automate everything, you'll never want to go back.
