Steve Jobs take on Adobe Flash and the Future

"Flash was created during the PC era – for PCs and mice. Flash is a successful business for Adobe, and we can understand why they want to push it beyond PCs. But the mobile era is about low power devices, touch interfaces and open web standards – all areas where Flash falls short."

"The avalanche of media outlets offering their content for Apple’s mobile devices demonstrates that Flash is no longer necessary to watch video or consume any kind of web content. And the 200,000 apps on Apple’s App Store proves that Flash isn’t necessary for tens of thousands of developers to create graphically rich applications, including games."

"New open standards created in the mobile era, such as HTML5, will win on mobile devices (and PCs too). Perhaps Adobe should focus more on creating great HTML5 tools for the future, and less on criticizing Apple for leaving the past behind."

I Love Jack Daniels Gives Code Assistance?

Sitting at the desk of a new co-worker today I noticed on her wall was a cheat sheet for some HTML code. Nothing big I thought until my eyes gravitated to the bottom of the sheet: Made by www.ilovejackdaniels.com Hmmmm intriguing indeed I thought!
I looked up the site and was greeted by this message: The site formerly hosted at ILoveJackDaniels.com has, at the request of the Jack Daniel's trademark team, been moved to the new domain AddedBytes.com. Please update your links, bookmarks, address books and mental notes. Please direct any questions, comments or problems to dave@addedbytes.com.
