Google Says F’ Apple! Flash is Back


What about Adobe? That’s what people who like flash videos, and games are screaming at Apple. Apple is openly non-supportive of any Flash types online, and feel that’s its a “dying” technology as Steve Jobs stated earlier this year. Company’s have been scrambling to conform to Apples strict standards and not using this dying technology. Videos are being re-formatted, advertisements are re-coded, and everyone’s waiting to see the iPad (that’s what all this craziness is for). The HTML5 community has been trying to get a piece of the action and I think we’ll be seeing more via Apple. However a little bug has pop its head up and yelled HEY!. That bug is called Google.

Google’s Chrome OS with not only support flash its built in. There is no need to update as its an intricate part of the platform. Google believes that Flash is a living technology and will continue to grow, and see’s no reason to kill it now. I wonder if that’s why Job and Schmidt had lunch to compare note on how there going to not have a monopoly and still dominate the industry (secretly). Steve Ballmer would have showed up but he was busy running around the block yelling about Microsoft. We’ll see how this plays out. It’s going to become a friendly version of Google vs Apple.

Google Book Scanning Past and Future…


So your smart, right. Your a hip geek. Your reading books on Google right? We’ll I’m getting there. I still like the nostalgic feeling of paper but I am a bit eccentric in that manner, call me crazy. However you hipsters who are reading off of Google probably think they got a pretty advanced set up. We’ll guess what. Its not. Its rather simple. They take a picture of the book then use software and flaten out the image is it looks flat.

Wow technology has gone so far.

Wow technology has gone so far.

I’m all for reading, but I thought Google was doing something cool, like sending the the books through a black hole, and they just ended up on their website. Or a bot crawled Borders scanning books and killed the people who were reading other news websites (not this one) on there laptops at the cafe.
