Adobe Flash 11 and its future

September 23, 2011 By 901am

In a few weeks Adobe will be releasing both the Adobe Flash Player 11 and Adobe Air to the market. Adobe has been advertising the new products as being significantly more powerful than previous versions, even going so far as describing it as a game console for the web. Adobe claims that the increase in graphics is almost 1,000 times faster than the previous version of Flash Player and Adobe Air.

But Adobe, as any tech savvy person knows, is also caught in a fight for its survival. Even though Flash Player and Adobe Air are quite commonly installed in PCs, Apple has removed Flash from the iOS platform and also on Macs. And another sign that does not bode well for Adobe is the recent announcement by Microsoft that the new version of Internet Explorer that will be included with the forthcoming Windows 8 Metro environment will not be supporting browser plugins – the entry point for Flash in a browser.

With slowly shrinking support and the threat being posed by HTML 5, will Adobe’s Flash still have a future especially in a post-PC age?
If Adobe will be asked, the company thinks that Flash still has a bright future for it. It has already called Flash Player 11 and also Air 3 the “next generation for the web”. This is quite a lofty claim. [Read more…]

Mobile Internet – Make the Most of It

January 28, 2011 By Splashpress Media

As much as a convenience mobile Internet can be, it can also add up to your bills quite heftily if you don’t know how to use it right – so make sure you’re prepared to make the most of your time while surfing the Web from your mobile. In some cases, it could be a good idea to install a new browser on your device, and not use the default one – this is especially valid for non-smartphone mobiles, which tend to often have some questionable designs for their browsers.

The device itself is important as well, of course – a phone with a small screen and uncomfortable keyboard can make it very inconvenient to do your browsing and subsequently increase the time you need to do anything when surfing the Web through mobile Internet. Nowadays, there are plenty of good deals for mobiles that are specifically designed for Internet users – so do some shopping around until you find one and go for it – if you’re an active surfer, you’ll be thanking yourself later on!

Don’t just use the Web for your entertainment though – this may sound like redundant advice for some of you folks who’ve been using their mobiles for this purpose for a while, but still – it can also add up to your productivity to a great degree. You can check the schedules for the trains or public transport, check out what’s running at your local cinema, whatever you can think of – be creative and try to really benefit from the powerful mini-computer you’re carrying in your pocket!

It takes having some good pricing plans on your mobile Internet if you want to really make some benefit off of it though, so do your “homework” well before landing on a deal.
