Adobe’s CTO Kevin Lynch just published a blog post with his thoughts on Flash, past and future, Apple iPad, HTML5, OSP and more.
The blog post entitled “Open Access to Content and Applications” gives you a good idea on where Adobe and the Flash Platform is going and what we are doing with our Open Screen [...]

DISCLAIMER: I work for Adobe on the platform evangelism team. I’ve been a Flash designer/developer for the last 12 years. Even though I work for Adobe. I’m pretty sure I would have also written this post if I was still a freelance Flash developer. The views expressed on this blog are my own and do [...]

E-Readers, 3D TV and internet-connected TVs, Blu-ray players and set-top boxes. That pretty much sums up CES 2010.
E-Readers
I have a Kindle and I absolutely love it. But I love it because it is so easy to use and even easier to buy books straight from the device. The same goes for the Nook, which directly [...]
There’s a good chance you immediately recognized the game in this screenshot. Over 28 million people played Farmville yesterday. Another 10 million played Cafe World. 6 million for FishVille Mafia Wars (Mafia Wars is not a Flash Game. Thanks Robert for pointing that out!). In fact, Zynga alone (maker of these games) serves 60 million players every [...]

Write once, deploy anywhere. Sounds nice, no? Sadly it’s not really a reality today. The currently available technologies are very fragmented and today there is no technology out there that makes that dream a reality.
I have a strong feeling that is going to change dramatically in 2010. Some will disagree or say that I am [...]

I came across this video on Ubergizmo and I wish this was real today…! The video demonstrates a multi-touch tablet to read magazines in full color with video, audio and online capabilities. The video is created by The Wonder Factory and other than that, there really isn’t any more information out there. While it’s only [...]
Note: Please update your After Effects CS4 installation to make sure you have the latest version available via the Adobe Updater. There is an issue with the preinstalled After Effects script that requires you to work with the latest point release (separate downloads available for Mac OS and Windows).
Ever wondered how you can create personalized [...]
Earlier this week, Kevin Lynch was a guest at NewTeeVee Live. He talks about Flash on TVs, the future of the Flash Platform. He also talks about how open Adobe has become and was also asked about his stance on HTML5.

Just about every week, I come across many cool sites and applications. To showcase these apps and sites, I’ve created a new category on my blog: The Gallery. The Gallery will be a place to showcase cool and innovative Flash applications and sites.
The HBO Imagine site is a great one to kick off this new [...]

Rob Ford’s Tweet this morning caught my attention. “We need 1 day when the Flash player is disabled just to appreciate how it lights up the web“, he said. I completely agree… We’ve become so accustomed to Flash just being there that we no longer realize how much it is used and how it “lights [...]

It looks like they need a lot of work to make Userinterface smart. or may be its an early stage development.

Serge,
Looking for information on which set-top boxes (mfr’s) and next-gen TV will be supporting 10.1?
Thanks,
