This is pretty cool. Those of you in the Flex community probably remember Digimix, one of the early AIR applications and winner of the AIR Derby at MAX in 2007. Alan Queen has been busily working away and today announced that he’s been acquired by Aviary, the Flex-based online creative tool company.

I keep being impressed with what the Aviary guys do. They recently released a vector editor called Raven which looks very cool and I’m a huge fan of their Peacock pattern generator. They’ve hired some of the best minds in the Flash world and it’s paid off well. More coverage of the acquisition over on TechCrunch and Silicon Alley Insider.
