Apollo takes to the .air
Much like the Spartan king from that movie 300, Apollo has obviously spent its time in the alpha version wilderness, and has returned to take on its new name. All praise “AIR”. (Adobe Integrated Runtime)
Seriously though, I’m not sure that it returned wrapped in the skin of a dead wolf (or a dead Silverlight) but it certainly piqued the industries’ interest. Time will tell, as always, whether the stir it caused actually forced Microsoft into announcing features they hadn’t planned for, or wether the race is truely still on.

Pittville Degree Show 2007 – see you there?

But anyway. People have been conversing / moaning / arguing on FlashCoders mailing list today, about how Flash CS3 weighs in at around 400mb and a 30min+ install time, compared to Flash 8′s 110mb and less install time.
They’re all worried that Flash could end up going down the road of Adobes’ Acrobat in terms of file sizes and continual ‘updates’. Read More…
