This is a follow up from the Complete Starter guide. You may want to read that first if
you are new to Eclipse and FDT. The aim of this article is to provide some

Google, Yahoo! and MSN Live provide a “Cached” or an equivalent link alongside their search results. These are the cached versions of pages when search bots index them. While these links can be used as backup when an actual page is down or dead, I felt that they are also an image of how the [...]
Katsuomi Kobayashi has developed an interesting driving simulation using Google Maps API for Flash. This is his second driving simulation, the first was simply a flash toy and a time-waster that I admit cost my previous employer some productivity.
