Adobe in (yet another) Apple outburst

It seems that Adobe is just too bitter on this. Honestly Adobe just get CS5 out the door and the problem is solved. Seems like they can't get that too happen so instead they bitch!

This is not about tech...it is about Flash apps cutting into Apple's App-store revenues. With all the great flash games out there for free, not alot of reason to buy many iPhone apps from Apple. So much for the free market. And we thought MS was the great evil empire.

Hemanth Sharma is coming this February to India's first and independent annual summit for the game development ecosystem - India Game Developer Summit (gamedevelopersummit dot com) to discuss the steps involved, the tools Adobe provides and a practical walkthrough to build innovative Flash games for devices in a matter of minutes. He will also cover the new features of Flash Platform that are offered to end users, gaming enthusiasts and developer geeks right from designing, developing, emulating on your desktops to successfully making your content provide similar user experience across a range of devices/platforms.

For all those who hate Flash because of web ads and think HTML5 will save the world...

Be careful what you wish for!

If ads are powered by HTML5, there no more Click2Flash, Adblock Plus, etc, because the entire site will have HTML5 codes and the ads will appear just like part of the site.

Online ads are not Adobe's fault. They are up to the website and they will be around forever.

And, there's no evidence that HTML5 will be any more or less efficient than Flash. I'll actually bet on much less efficient since the latest AS3 VM is very optimized and HTML5 JavaScript will not be.

I think the HTML5 video tags will be great, but the rest is nothing special and IMHO will only make things worse.

Let's just hope IE doesn't support too much HTML5, so people don't switch their Flash ads to HTML5 ads and kill the ad blocker days... trust me, if anyone's happy about the future of HTML5, it's the online advertisers! ;-)
