• “What a joke if anybody waits 3 years for Big Media to get its New Media act together.” Perfectly put, Nikki. Not to mention StOopId.

• This is rather bad news. Adobe may be selling plenty of software, but its products are not without their problems. Among other things, to quote one of my colleagues:

  Flash isn’t just a hog on OS X. It’s equally garbage on Linux. The system resources and CPU percentage it sucks out of a system are ludicrous.

• “New Media” will end up as Old Media on New Media!

• Weren’t they saying they were going to do all these wonderful things when they merged with AOL?

  “How did that work out for them?” he asked with a mockingly ironic tone.

• The giants take big steps (albeit sometimes in the wrong direction). It may be the first step but sooner or later, and it will probably be sooner, its going to gain momentum. It took them long to get into “independent” film, then they just undermined all the labor and bought the biggest “indy studios”. I have no doubt that the “system” will not only partake in New media they may very well become the biggest players!
