Quick thought on Google Chrome

I am a FireFox user from the time I can remember, when I first heard about Google Chrome I said to my self ‘it wont be anything special‘, but when I saw a presentation of this browser I thought ‘maybe it’s time for change‘. I am a mac user so I had to wait long time… when I finally get my hands on the beta version I liked it but there was one thing I couldn’t stand. As you know I work allot with Flash, I don’t know why but Google Chrome doesn’t shows the hand cursor over Flash buttons, it doesn’t meter if the buttonMode is set to true or false, the cursor doesn’t change! I searched for the answer to my problem but haven’t found anything, I didn’t even found a single person complaining about this, whats wrong with you people? :) Please if you know how to fix this let me know!

Steve Jobs says: ‘Adobe is Lazy’

Finally we heard from Steve Jobs (CEO of Apple) what he have to say about lack of Flash on iPad:

About Adobe: They are lazy, Jobs says. They have all this potential to do interesting things but they just refuse to do it. They don’t do anything with the approaches that Apple is taking, like Carbon. Apple does not support Flash because it is so buggy, he says. Whenever a Mac crashes more often than not it’s because of Flash. No one will be using Flash, he says. The world is moving to HTML5.

I really haven’t expected such a statement, I totally disagree with Steve. Flash is not dying and there is no way it will die any time soon. HTML5 is a good technology but before IE will support it years will pass… And about the Flash stability: I am a mac user for over two year (I know its not very long but still) and my mac never got frozen because of Flash. There are many buggy Flash apps out there but for me they only throw errors(never caused a freeze). I wonder if Adobe will response to this somehow.

Apple stared a war with Google and Adobe and I really don’t see the point, it’s about the money as always…

What do you think guys?

The buzz around iPad

There is allot of buzz lately around the Apple iPad and also around lack of Flash Player on it. I personally really like Apples products but the iPad is kind of funny… Things like: lack of flash, no multitasking, no wide-screen are killing this tablet. Everything has to be purchased or download form iTunes store. Internet already is field with videos and photos that laugh at Steves new creation. Flash community took a stand and organized a petition to Apple, so please if you care about Flash on iPhone/iPad sign it! (make sure you use the correct email because you will have to confirm your vote).

Click hear to sign the petition.

There are some interesting post about the new iPad check them out:
