The big news in the web and mobile world today is about Adobe’s decision to discontinue development of Flash for mobile devices. From Adobe’s announcement:
We will no longer continue to develop Flash Player in the browser to work with new mobile device configurations (chipset, browser, OS version, etc.) following the upcoming release of Flash Player 11.1 for Android and BlackBerry PlayBook.
Marco Arment hits on exactly what I believe this means for the future of Flash:
If web developers must make non-Flash implementations of everything, why bother making the Flash versions at all? This isn’t just the death of mobile Flash: it’s a confirmation from Adobe that all Flash is on its way out.
