The iPad-Adobe Flash Argument Concluded, Completely aka "more shit from Fast Company"
February 22, 2010 at 7:53pm by Jason Van Pelt
This is a ridiculous argument. I've written Flash apps for tablet PCs for years. You do lose the mouse over state - but that's not imperative for all flash apps, especially if you are designing FOR tablets. If anything it is a short-coming of tablets, not Flash. Are HTML hover states are any different?
Then there's multi-touch support for flash...

http://theflashblog.com/?p=1666How can we not argue that this is a content-control issue on Apple's part? Flash isn't the answer to everything, but neither is Apple.
What a pile of tosh. I just used the new Foxtel App from Telstra on the iPhone and it has a form of hover control. I hate it, but that's not the point - it exists in multi-touch. I think I'll take Mike Chambers opinion on that when it comes to Flahs too; http://bit.ly/cXsH82
Do some Journalism 'Kit'.
Two articles from Fast Company, two pieces of poo - Unsubscribe.
Most Innovative Companies a la Fast Company (or linkbait excrement)
Looks like they just picked shit. Last years #1 (whoever the fuck) apparently was so innovative, it doesn't need to be innovative anymore. And HTC? The company which over the last few years has, all alone, made WinMo usable, is apparently 'new' this year. Probabaly cos they built the Google Phone.
These sort of articles are like the Techpop which appears on the front page of MSM online properties.
Yeah, you said it - utter excrement
