I’ve yet to produce anything that might be safe and wanted enough to release out on the big wide world, but I’ve made a few quick, little sample apps just to get a hold on the system.

Well today, the beta ended and the runtime is now ready for the world to start using. To run AIR apps you’ll need the AIR runtime (like to view Flash you need the Flash runtime) but that’s included automatically when you download your first AIR application — of which there have been a bunch created already. You might have already used one if you’re riding along on the Twitter bandwagon as a number of very good applications have been made to interact with that particular site/service.
