The iPad provides the ultimate browsing experience?
Abobe uses some well known sites (and one that’s NSFW) to point out the glaring lack of Flash support in Apple’s iPad.
Millions of websites use Flash. Get used to the blue logos.
Being a Flash platform evangelist is the tech equivalent of being a climate change denier.
… or a Scientologist.
No flash support and no multitasking are HUGE mistakes.
This device SCREAMS out for rich interactive flash-type content. I’m not saying Flash necessarily as a platform is the answer, but you need to allow people a way to develop the content this device was made for.
It’s also a huge disappointment that I can’t listen to Pandora, and flip between e-mails and browsing the web. That simply has to change.
I think you need to expand your “development” skills, kid. Flash is likely one of the largest inhibitors of the web. Apple is doing their part to push forward, past the first iterations of the web.

the other day, me and my three handsomest friends and orson went to a trivia night at a local pub. one of the first few questions was, “how many british sovereigns were alive in 1684?” orson, who is an actuary in real life* estimated that five was the maximum overlapage among generations. so we added one for good measure (ie. some sickly pipsqueak who ruled for 12 days, or whatever) and said six even though, my other friends (who are more handsome than orson) thought this seemed way too high.
we were therefore quite floored when we found out that the answer was eight. it was at this point that i proposed that we adjourn the trivia game so i could go home and graph out the logistics of how exactly that this was possible.
a: it was a perfect shitstorm of joint sovereignty, the glorious revolution, and lord protectoring.

Oh, bloody Hell.
Beginning to understand the outrage I saw when NBC canceled this.
Nonsense. NBC doesn’t make mistakes.
Yeah… about this… AND Friday Night Lights!
