From the site: "FlexFM is a newly created library that offers developers greater control and flexibility in using FileMaker® Server as a data back-end for Adobe® Flex-based applications."

Google Analytics is a flash-based dashboard solution for all intents and purposes (not Flex-based, but certainly Flash-based). Flex sold me based on the potential of the technology and not even the demo (though the demo did have me salivating). If you have any interesting Flex sites to visit, please post here.

The company i work at develops in Flex, and we get a lot of clients come in asking to hook up [add your favorite database here] to Flex, to take advantage of all of the animated charts, cool interface, etc... By the way, a client is talking with us right now about using Filemaker with Flex 2.0. And you're absolutely right about the pushing data to a dashboard - we've seen people decide on Flex right after seeing a demo of this. -Casey I have to agree with you wholeheartedly on this one.
