I laughed and that's all that matters. If I would have said nintendo invented the mouse and posted that pic, someone else would have mentioned you anyway.


I take great solace knowing Steve Jobs died thinking flash was still around :)

That's OK I prefer Silverlight HTML5.

Flash is one of the main programs I work on so I'm really interested in this.

Flash's swf players won't be updated for mobile devices, instead it's going to concentrate on publishing out apps for mobile devices.

It's not killing mobile Flash is going to concentrate on publishing out apps for mobile.

Macromedia realized that Apple was making pcs for designers to work on, so they didn't bother making swfs run smoothly on Mac browsers.

Adobe now owns Flash and they realized that programmers are making dual websites, one for PCs and one for mobile devices. The one for mobile are just text sites. Updating the player to work on mobile is as useless as making the player run smoothly on Macs.

HTML5 right now is where Flash was about 10 years ago. Adobe could have just waited for the hardware to catch up, just like it did on PC. (10 years ago, you could barely scrape more than 12 frames per second out of a small 600x400 pixel Flash window).

I hate streaming video in flash player. Either it is running my CPU at %100 causing everything to freeze, or it’s playing my video choppy(not talking about buffering) or the plug-in fails and I have to refresh the screen.  I wish they could go to something with less amount of suck.
