Not exactly the easiest thing in the world, but possible, and something more people should know about

Starting with an online word processor, whiteboard app and file sharing. No MS Office killer yet but interesting to see Adobe continue into online services

Removes all of the licensing restrictions and publishes full APIs

I'm loving the arms race between Adobe and Apple on this one

This has been out for a month and nobody told me about it?!!

A few things I missed earlier: Gears is a collaboration with Mozilla, Adobe and Opera (Apple?). Apollo will support Gears.

The whole SDK, from the Actionscript components to the Java-based compilers. That's certainly one way to piss Microsoft off.

Take your video with you

"Adobe Flash CS 3" just sounds weird

Tamarin project will implement ECMAScript 4, presumably in both Flash and Firefox. Rock.

Lightweight (2.5MB!) PDF/XHTML/Flash(?) reader. Adobe's ebook/digital paper software, it would seem.

Sound Edit 16 lives! (Provided you have an x86 based computer...)

Oh please, this is horse shit. I'm the last person to defend Microsoft or their buinsess practices, but this is classic corporate-speak BS. If you're going to make something an open standard, make it truly open, even for convicted monopolists. This just m

The demos look sweet. I've been using scriptaculous for some rapid prototyping stuff at work, this could be a replacement contender.

Sounds like it's going to be a while, which is fine by me, incidentally, as I won't be needing a new Mac for at least a year anyhow.

Turns out Lightroom has been in development for four years - makes me wonder if Apple got word of this project and pushed Aperture out to compete head to head - would explain why Aperture feels so rushed for some people

Apple's Aperture warning shot has been answered in kind

"...we will continue delivering the Flash Player as a small, efficient runtime for content and applications on the web, and Adobe Reader for viewing and interacting with PDF documents and forms." Sounds like what they're really working on (HTML + SWF + PD

"Our long-term plan is to develop a 'universal client' by combining PDF, Flash and HTML in a single, integrated runtime." Crap. You know, when other companies try to be Microsoft, Microsoft wins.

Since the two really haven't been competing in the same space for a while (does anyone use Fireworks? Did anyone use LiveMotion?), I'm not sure this is bad. Hopefully we'll just get some kickass software out of Macrodobemedia
