I got a new Flex AIR application tool. There are some very useful desktop applications that in time I find out. One of them in my opinion is Snackr, an AIR app built using Adobe Flex 3 and Adobe AIR 1.0.

Snackr is a RSS ticker which pulls random items from your favorite feeds and scrolls them across your computer desktop. It keeps you up to date in a very simple way.

Snackr does run on the Linux AIR alpha that Adobe just released, but it doesn’t look right (animations are glitchy, transparency doesn’t work). It should be functional, though. You’ll need to download the runtime manually for now. Click here to download it
