			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday, <a href="http://twitter.com/gskinner">Grant Skinner</a> (creator of the awesome <a href="http://www.gskinner.com/libraries/gtween/">GTween library</a>) came up with a competition for all those AS3 developers out there. The aim? Make something funky in 140 characters or less using the &#8220;gimme&#8221; code provided on: <a href="http://gskinner.com/playpen/tweetcoding.html">http://gskinner.com/playpen/tweetcoding.html</a></p>
<p>Within a few hours, there were some amazing tweets submitted, some of which just blow my mind. All submissions can be found <a href="http://tweetcoding.machine501.com/">here</a>. One of my current favourites is <a href="http://tweetcoding.machine501.com/tc_1226328953.swf">this one of a tree</a>, which is just brilliant!</p>
<p>Needless to say, I couldn&#8217;t resist the challenge, so have created <a href="http://tweetcoding.machine501.com/tc_1228935183.swf">Painted Rain</a>, which is _supposed_ to look like drops of paint falling into water and blending together. Was really tough to do in 140 characters! Here&#8217;s the <a href="http://tweetcoding.machine501.com/tc_1228935183.swf">link to the swf</a>, and the code:</p>
<p><code>h=r();l=600;o[i++]={a:h*l,b:r()*l,c:h*30,d:h*1e7};g.clear();for each(e in o){g.beginFill(e.d,20/e.c);g.drawCircle(e.a,e.b,e.c++)}i&gt;150?i=0:i</code></p>
<p>You can keep up to date on the contest by searching for <a href="http://tweetcoding.machine501.com/">#tweetcoding</a> on Twitter!</p>
