The one thing "The Wilderness Downtown" fails to do — and this is that "pretty much" caveat mentioned earlier — is build a case for the death of Flash.

There’s been much ado about the death of Flash ever since Apple CEO Steve Jobs declared it not good enough both for iPhone and iPad, the alleged savior of magazines and newspapers — hence, all media’s obsession to work with HTML5, which Jobs prefers instead of Flash. Yeah, Jobs doesn’t want porn on his products either, yet that continues to exist.

Technolog – Arcade Fire HTML5 video is awesome — but no Flash killer

Brilliant!

Yea, it is really brilliant idea from Steve Jobs or Apple to produce this product and introduce it to the market. Not only providing the cutting edge technology and the most magnificent user experience ever, the ease of use and its capabilities can blow your mind.

I agree, even if i don’t like Apple products; especially iPAD,  I wanted sometimes to go and just buy it, as i saw everyone is excited to have one.

But, to give you a clear idea, the iPAD selling in the middle east especially in UAE is much less than expected! people think it is really going to be the best selling but it is actually not!

Others are Coming, the Incredibles!

Market is hot, it is very hot and a lot of products are not riding the wave and in fact they are really competing.

With the new Android 2.2 and Adobe Flash support, incredible options are there in the market like the new Samsung and HTC HD2 Android ….etc

They will really give you all the options you need and more and you will not be needing iPad or even iPhone

Again Adobe did a great leap in the User Experience.

in fact everyone is reading this article knows that it is not the first time for Adobe to inspire the Users with such great innovations and tools.

What is it All about!

Adobe released the Next-Generation News Reader in AIR, and it is considered to be one of the first that changes the News Readers Experience.

“Paper is dying”

Actually, NO! but you can say very soon. with all this propaganda about going green, it became essential now for the industries to recalculate their goals and with World getting more busy and more connected you can find it very hard now for Internet users to read a Paper News.

however, you cannot say no one will never use paper anymore, but it is fading away or at least it is not as fast as getting the information online.

Same Experience on different sources

Based on the open source project by Adobe, the new Reader is cross operating, cross platform and soon it can be cross devices.

Particle speaking, you can view same reader on daily devices you are using ex: Mobile, PDA, LCD screens…etc

Next!

I think we will see it as engine that aggregate all the famous World Wide News Papers

Wondering if swine flu and world economical situation would affect MAX attendance. Frankly speaking you are talking about one of the major and most important event happening in the year, much like you are talking about OSCAR. every designer/developer around the worker would love to attend this year MAX especially when MAX Europe was cancelled.

I hope that MAX Team this year would consider the non-US community whom want to attend that great event.

No one denies that MOSS is the most successful product from Microsoft and really consider to be the optimum solution for enterprise collaboration and content publishing, but as always we say since its release SharePoint was sold in wrong way by Microsoft sales people, which leads to over estimate its functionality.

On the other hand you can read the interview with Chris Capossela talking about the Next wave  of Microsoft Office Products  and how it will redefine how People Work.

Started with 600 employees layoff and before that MAX Milan which was below expectation.

The most annoying and frustrating thing you can experience, that it was simple to say ‘No MAX Europe in 2009’.

On the other hand you find Microsoft is taking chance and increasing the community penetration, establishing and confirming their presence more in 2009. Long time I was supporting Adobe blindly with its negatives and positives, unfortunately, it is time to look at things at its right perspective.

As it was a very simple title, simply Microsoft scored on Adobe this year and Microsoft gained more territory.

See it on Ted’s website it is not even official on Adobe!
