1. Wow, really Adobe Flash Player installer? - Chris Messina documents the latest fail from Adobe, requiring the Finder to be quit (?!) before you can install Flash.

  2. Hmmm. So giving Apple control over the iPhone is bad, but giving Adobe control over rich content on the web is fine. Hmmm.
  3. When iPhone was announced, the big question was when or if it would support Flash. With the iPad the debate is if Flash is irrelevant.
  4. It makes all the difference in the world that Apple is pushing H.264 rather than, say, QuickTime as the way forward for embedded web video.

  9. ➶ Apple's iPad - a broken link?

    Another link courtesy of Gruber, this somewhat gloating piece from the Flash team seems to deride the fact that the iPad doesn’t include Flash.

    Upon watching the keynote stream this morning and seeing the broken plugin link, I couldn’t have been happier at the confirmation of no Flash on the iPad. The appearance of the missing plugin icon in the keynote was in absolutely no way accidental: the deliberate display of the icon is a firm F-U to Adobe.
