I thought all of you might find this really interesting. This is actually

Hi Cara and Others,
Actually, the more interesting comment on this was the Matt Legend Gemmell's
rewrite of the announcement on his blog, which presented his condensed

Hmm,
In the mobile space yes. But I don't see this news effecting flash on desktops
anytime soon. Soon meaning 3 years or less in this case. And its flash on
desktops that is the real thorn in the backside as far as accessibility is
concerned.

Hi Daniel,
I'd have to interpret Cara's subject line and post in order to answer your
question, but I think the reason for her subject line is that Adobe will be

What developers yearn for is write-once for all platform solutions. So
if I can make one web page that generally works for iOS and Desktop, why
do a 'separate but equal' implementation in flash? Everybody knows that
eventually serving two masters ends badly. Sure flash will linger on but

I was talking with my brother today. it was his opinion that the
decision by adobe would not have happened wthout the death of steve
jobs. he was telling me that their feud was so bitter that neither
