Weekly Design Notes

Many people have spoken out about Flash and Adobe basically putting the nail in the coffin. As someone that has used Flash for a long time I don’t think I have anything too important to add to that. I’ve barely used Flash on a website recently in a way that makes this upsetting to me.

However, I work at an in-house marketing department for a large corporation. We have lots of Flash projects here. Most of them are not web related and are used for teaching tools or to run a presentation with a bit more flair than PowerPoint can muster. This projects will not go away anytime soon. If you use Flash you will probably still have a job somewhere for awhile yet. Use this time to develop the skills you will need to transition to the next thing.
