Apple's iPad -- a broken link?
—
It was really exciting to see some of the technologies that Adobe has contributed to, like PDF and ePub support, taking center stage in the launch. Adobe technology is at the center of virtually every print and digital workflow, so undoubtedly a lot of what you¹ll see getting delivered to the iPad will have originated in Adobe creative software.

Run, Chrome OS! Run!

It seems that the news on Chrome OS release have left no one neutral; some observers are beating the drums of its imminent failure and premature death, by relying on rather oversimplified concepts of cloud computing and insinuating about the reasons why careless moms and dads just can't grasp the concept of strong passwords ("how many times did ...

Apple Inc. co-founder Steve “Woz” Wozniak has seen his share of software glitches in the gadgets he has created and in those he collects.

Maybe it's not as big news as Toyota's, but Apple has announced a fix of its own. Owners of the big daddy of iMacs -- those with a 27-inch screen -- have been complaining mightily on the Internet since the computer debuted in October that the display had an annoying flicker. It also, some said, had a yellow tinge. Apple has released a firmware ...

Amazon yesterday announced lower prices for Outbound Data Transfer for Amazon Web Services. While a $0.02 decrease in price may not seem like a big deal, it is. Not just because it’s a significant cost savings at large scale usage of AWS, but because it’s a statement about Amazon’s positioning within the cloud. Platforms: Friend or [...]
