Last week at TED, Wired and Adobe unveiled an iPad app that they’ve both been working on. Looks interesting doesn’t it? But wait a minute - isn’t Flash banned from the iPad for being a crashtastic battery hog?
So how does the iPad App work? Apparently it’s build using Air. Ah well that’s all right then becuase Air’s a much more stable, lightweight platform than Flash…
O.K. despite the sarcasm, the Wired App looks interesting, and definitely suggests a more interesting future for multimedia storytelling. I just hope that it doesn’t perform like almost every other horrible Air app I’ve ever had the misfortune of installing.
Seriously impressive … but in practice?
