iPhone | RIAs, And This Is What the Internet Looks Like … Without Flash
January 21, 2008 by g.
Hey, there is the Wall Street Journal quoting Ryan Stewart! "No one aside from [Apple Chief Executive] Steve Jobs has any idea if or when it’s coming," Ryan Stewart, Adobe’s chief spokesman for its Internet-based applications, wrote on his blog last week. "Everyone I talk to doesn’t know anything." Yes, and the following video sums up the iPhone’s web experience today (very, very web 1.0):
The Wall Street Journal article is headlined . If you don’t have access to wsj.com, macdailynews.com graciously repeats a bit more of the article’s content [click here] Two more excerpts: The lack of Flash Player is an oft-cited reason for not buying the iPhone, according to a number of Apple online user forums. Another theory is that Apple may be developing its own player, given that Adobe’s products for cellphones are essentially the only choice now available. When I presented last year at TODCon on "The Case For Flex 2", I had included material about Quicktime as a contender in the rich media space. Is the reason that Apple has posted on the iPhone a big sign saying "Flash Not Welcome Here" because Apple (following in Microsoft and Java’s footsteps), has it’s own "Flash Killer" in the offing? Early this year Ted Patrick wrote "I think Apple has an entry into the RIA market in store for 2008." And Ryan was thinking along the same lines back in late 2006, writing "Apple is going to make a play in Rich Internet Applications". Time will tell. btw, Congratulations to Ryan on his apparent promotion! I see reported in the Wall Street Journal that you are now "Adobe’s chief spokesman for its Internet-based applications". In all seriousness, you truly have been doing great work since announcing 9 months ago "I’m Joining Adobe".

AIR is insanely great! Brilliant in fact.
If you work with JavaScript, Flash or Flex then this training is for you.
Adobe AIR is a new cross platform runtime. Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh today (Linux and mobile announced).
Flash and Flex developers already enjoy 100% of the capabilities of Adobe Flash Player 9, so all of the "*PLUS*" statements above are what AIR offers new for Flash and Flex developers.
JavaScript developers also enjoy all of the AIR APIs *PLUS* also new for JavaScript developers is 100% of the market leading rich media Flash APIs too! Wow! See this link for the "JavaScript Language Reference for Adobe AIR":
http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/air/1/jslr/
We are proud to announce that we are among the first to be offering Adobe AIR training for JavaScript, Flash and Flex Developers. And that our first classes will be in Las Vegas!

Note: This post was updated to reflect a change on the Toronto dates (from March to May)
Breakout of the Browser and Security Sandboxes Now! | For Javascript and/or Flash and/or Flex Developers and Designers | Adobe AIR Training | Sign Up and Learn About AIR Now
Do you work with Javascript OR Flash OR Flex? Now you can use 100% of your existing skills and create standalone applications! We will train you on the Adobe AIR APIs which give you the power to create apps you could only have dreamed about before!
Adobe AIR gives Javascript OR Flash OR Flex developers great new APIs. Adobe AIR enables you (and your applications) to break out of the browser and out of the security sandboxes enforced by browsers and the Flash Player.
AIR apps are easy to make, deploy and bring to market. They are cross-platform: Windows and Mac today (Linux and mobile announced). Truly write once and run everywhere! And all using 100% of your existing skills programming with Javascript OR Flash OR Flex!
And Javascript teams especially stand to gain by getting direct access to 100% of the Flash APIs!
We are proud to announce that we are among the first to be offering Adobe AIR training. Following are our first two North American dates:
- West Coast: Las Vegas, April 26 & 27 (Sat/Sun)
http://www.richmediainstitute.com/training/air_lasvegas/ - East Coast: Toronto, May 6 & 7 (Tue/Wed)
http://richmediainstitute.com/training/air_toronto/
The training sessions above are unique in that they cover all three authoring options for Adobe AIR: Flex, Flash and HTML/AJAX/Javascript. If you work with any of these technologies then this training is for you. Please forward this link to all who you think might be interested.
In addition to the sessions listed above, we also offer Adobe official training courses, one specific to using Flex to build AIR apps, and the other HTML/AJAX/Javascript. (Custom and private onsite classes are available upon request.)
The core power of Adobe AIR are:
- allowing organizations and developers to use their core competencies with web development technologies (Flex, Flash and HTML/AJAX/Javascript), to develop stand-alone desktop applications too.
- simplifies cross-platform development by requiring development for single target runtime.
- total branding and possibilities for increased customer affinity.
- robust APIs for network aware applications, graphics, file reference, embedded SQL data, and more!

News Flash: Stephen Elop (former Macromedia CEO) Joins Microsoft Replacing Retiring Co-President Jeff Raikes
January 10, 2008 by g.
Wow!
I always had a very high regard for Stephen Elop. I have long felt that the culture of an organization reflects (to some degree) the personality of the CEO. Macromedia did amazing things as an independent company.
When Adobe and Macromedia merged, Stephen joined Adobe as the president of Adobe’s worldwide field operations. When Stephen left Adobe in December 2006, knowing what an awesome (and unique) talent that he was, I fully expected him to be picked up to head something big. But Microsoft?! Wow!
Stephen, best of luck at Microsoft! I do hope that Adobe continues to dominate on the web (including successfully fending of Microsoft’s Expression and Silverlight business initiatives).
Here is the link to Microsoft’s press release:

Cairngorm News! — New Home Page, Bugbase, Support Lists, Governance Model, &amp;amp;amp; Future Direction!
January 6, 2008 by g.
Today Cairngorm opened the doors on it’s new home on the web to the open source public!
Cairngorm’s home is now at:
http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/cairngorm/
Great new support features for the Cairngorm community include:
- Bugbase
- Support Lists
- Governance Model
For overviews, see the following posts by:
- Alistair McLeod
http://weblogs.macromedia.com/amcleod/archives/2008/08/cairngorm_moved.html - Steven Webster [Includes statements about future directions]
http://weblogs.macromedia.com/swebster/archives/2008/08/cairngorm_3_-_a.html
Also, if you have not already seen this, check out the following subset of the formal Cairngorm training materials that Adobe recently published:
- Introducing Cairngorm
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/introducing_cairngorm.html
Note: If you are interested in the full Cairngorm training delivered by an experienced architect and lead developer using Cairngorm, please contact info[at]halcyonsolutions.net
The title of Steven’s post above includes "Adobe Consulting Led but Community Driven". By my reckoning Cairngorm is now arguably the oldest of the many amazing open source projects spawned by the collective organization that is now Adobe.
I have a huge debt of gratitude to the individuals that have both given birth to Cairngorm and evolved it so far.
I love Adobe’s commitment to open source. Especially since Adobe’s announcement last year about their open sourcing the Flex framework, Adobe now:
- integrates open source into their commercial (and open source) products
- contributes actively to multiple open source projects
- is the incubator for open source projects as well
In the long term, Adobe’s commitment to open source ensures that we all win! 
Thank you Adobe! And specific to today’s announcements about Cairngorm, thank you to great team now at Adobe Consulting that have made Cairngorm happen from the start, and who promise to help us keep it happening in the future.
In closing, no post about Cairngorm would be complete without a plug for the following now longstanding community resource that continues to support learning about using Cairngorm:
