It’s over and we won.

Finally Adobe has come to under­stand it’s Flash mobile plug-in isn’t worth the trou­ble. Lucky us. The plu­gin was crap on mobile and now it seems Adobe got the message.

 

from Adobe:

Our future work with Flash on mobile devices will be focused on enabling Flash devel­op­ers to pack­age native apps with Adobe AIR for all the major app stores. We will no longer adapt Flash Player for mobile devices to new browser, OS ver­sion or device con­fig­u­ra­tions. Some of our source code licensees may opt to con­tinue work­ing on and releas­ing their own imple­men­ta­tions. We will con­tinue to sup­port the cur­rent Android and Play­Book con­fig­u­ra­tions with crit­i­cal bug fixes and secu­rity updates.

Finally updated to Light­room 3. So, how under a rock have we been that the named changed? This brand­ing stu­pid­ity has gone too far. Adobe Pho­to­shop Light­room? I winced. When your friend says: “You should buy the new Pho­to­shop” which one?

So if you buy Adobe Pho­to­shop Light­room 3 — doesn’t that make you think you don’t need plain old Adobe Photoshop?

Con­fu­sion.

— how to cre­ate it in your own prod­uct line.

Maybe when Steve Jobs said that Google was out to kill the iPhone he wasn’t off his head.

Google has backpedaled on its ambi­tious plans for HTML5 and H.264 play­back some­what after buy­ing On2 and releas­ing its VP8 video codec as WebM. It has also cozied up to Adobe to promi­nently pro­mote Android and the forth­com­ing Chrome OS as a Flash-compatible platforms.

In just months, from seem­ingly nowhere, Apple’s solo cam­paign to dethrone Flash as the de facto stan­dard for web video has gath­ered enough momen­tum to get over the top. The ques­tion is no longer whether HTML5 will or should do the job, but when. – web­mon­key

With the con­tin­ued hoopla we believe this is even more true. More and more mobile devices will use HML 5 mov­ing for­ward. Inves­ti­ga­tions of Apple refus­ing Flash are now under­way due to Adobe throw­ing around it’s weight. The mobile web is inject­ing itself in the argue­ment and we don’t believe Flash will endure.

Steve Jobs pub­lished an open let­ter on apple.com

Flash is a cross plat­form devel­op­ment tool. It is not Adobe’s goal to help devel­op­ers write the best iPhone, iPod and iPad apps. It is their goal to help devel­op­ers write cross plat­form apps. And Adobe has been painfully slow to adopt enhance­ments to Apple’s plat­forms. For exam­ple, although Mac OS X has been ship­ping for almost 10 years now, Adobe just adopted it fully (Cocoa) two weeks ago when they shipped CS5. Adobe was the last major third party devel­oper to fully adopt Mac OS X.  – Steve Jobs

The con­ver­sa­tion has changed from will Flash die to when will Flash be dead.

Many peo­ple wanted to say it. Steve just had the nerve.
