FlashBookmarks.com

There is a new site (I saw it for first time today) FlashBookmarks.com which collected new info, posts, links about Flash, Flex, AIR. It’s done in Flash and you can add your blog link or interesting Flash sites. I think there are more aggregators in Flash world, but I think this one will be useful as well.
