Flash on the iPhone

Since Bobby Scoble posted a link to a funny video earlier about the lack of Flash on the iPhone, it has sparked more discussion about it on the comments thread. Here’s my take:
If the iPhone had Flash support, then it would be very easy to build fullscreen web-powered applications for the device which *could* look […]

Adobe Apollo Launches Alpha : Desktop and Web move closer

Finally, Adobe’s Apollo is out for developers to try out their Flash, Flex and AJAX Ninjutsu and build cross-platform desktop apps. Mike Chambers, who runs the excellent Developer Network there (and did at Macromedia before) introduces it nicely.
Previously, I have used a product called Zinc to build desktop apps from Flash, but now a lot […]

Embedding Flash in Wordpress.com Blogs?

Hi. Is there anyone out there who knows if it’s possible at all to embed a flash movie in a Wordpress.com blog post? I see that not so long ago they added a ‘way’ to post YouTube flash to a post, but that would have had to been done like a ‘deal’ due to demand, […]

BBC News : RSS NewsReader : Secondlife :Koz

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Z8zbjH9S9o]
Here’s a demo of something I have been meaning to try for ages. After dusting off some old actionscript skills from back in the flash5 days, I was able to get a screen reading RSS feeds. Yay to that!!

Yet Another Flash Video Sharing Clone Gets More Funding

It's interesting this: that yet another video sharing clone site has got funding. A site called Veoh has just secured a series B round of VC funding - yet it looks EXACTLY like YouTube (who got funded a while ago) - which has many clones, with slightly different ideas on how the person who shared […]

Evoca helps Adobromedia

Just reading Mike Arrington's blurb on Evoca. Here's my thrupenny bit : (it was going to be a comment, but it got long enough for a blog post I think )…
I think they've done another great job with Flash Media Server. The socapp stuff and pips are nice and what you'd expect these days.
You've […]

Wordpress updates WYSIWYG

I noticed before the weekend that Wordpress seemed to hav updated
the WYSIWYG textarea to 'do' the popups in the same window in a 'div',
rather than popup a new window. Nice.
The trouble is, things like linebreaks seem to be going screwy here. Even though I delete them and
don't see them in the source viewer, they still […]

Origami is childsplay

Now, I’m not in the habit of posting links to videos of young girls playing with toys, but this time I’ll make an exception. WhatIsNew’s Lora has posted a video interview she made with her 12 year old, after spending the day playing with the TabletKiosk Origami mini-tablet PC.
This is great! And this is why […]

Flash Beauties

Check out the finalists and winners of the FlashForward conference. Some AMAZING stuff here. My Flash skills are nothing compared to these guys. These are the sorts of people I want to work with to help build some great products.
These past few weeks, I have been switching back and forth from PHP to Flash Actionscript, […]

Ones, Heroes and Zeros

Dave’s been pointing a guy called Phil Jones recently. He has some interesting ideas and clearly thinks alot about stuff. He’s a professor. Probably paid to. Cool! Today Dave posted a response to some of the points Phil has been raising.
One snippet here caught my eye:
I think DMOZ and Yahoo’s directories are the wrong model, […]
