"(PDF and Flash) both have huge reach across the internet: hundreds of millions of people. I think the Flash player is in 98 per cent of desktops."
"People should expect to see that much of what we do in the future will be designed to take advantage of that platform: the combination of the PDF reader and Flash player,"
This is what Mr Elop, Adobe, said in the "Adobe no Flash in the pan for mobile solutions" interview by BizTech.
He gives the example of an online loan application site, which uses Flash to display the options in an interactive way, then a PDF form for the final application.
Adobe expects mobile phones will be another big market for the Flash/PDF combination. "This is at the heart of our strategy," he says. "We want (Flash/PDF) to be the cross-platform choice. For mobile devices, set-top boxes, digital television sets, gaming platforms, car navigation, aircraft entertainment, the list goes on and on."
"PDF form for the final application"
Why on earth would I want to do that, having written a nice Flex GUI for the questions ?

Maybe you wouldn't want to do it, Tom- but what about ALL the flash designers that can make easily update-able interfaces just like your own? Flash is so widespread, and so is the PDF format. It makes perfect sense. All you need is Adobe Acrobat Reader and you can make anything happen!

All right! Adobe Acrobat Reader must you help

This sucks. The National Journal's Technology Daily is shutting down. This means that the country's only source of focused daily technology policy news will soon be no longer.
According to an email blast sent to subscribers today, the online pub closes at the end of January.
I was an original subscriber way back in 1998 -- back when Bara Vaida was the pub's first star reporter -- and stuck with it through what is (shockingly) almost a decade. It was and is the only place to get a consistent and in-depth perspective on issues that are otherwise glossed over or opined to-death by know-it-alls (who know little).
Over the years, Tech Daily, frankly, became a little too easy to take for granted. It was always there in a way that was almost overwhelming for even the biggest tech policy geek. But, when you really needed a quick perspective on policy doings related to issues like Health IT, cybersecurity, or copyright (to name just a few), you could get everything you need and more with just a little time on the site. Just as importantly, from a tech policy communications perspective, you knew that when you needed to provide a clients' viewpoint on an issue, there would very likely be an educated, highly-professional reporter at Tech Daily who would be up to speed.
Despite the high cost of a Tech Daily subscription, it's understood that the pub ran a tight margin. Apparently, for whatever reason, Tech Daily recently ran on the wrong side of the red/black line in the opinion of its corporate parent.
