New Public Betas of Adobe Flex and AIR
09:57:06 am, by Laurent Brigaut Email

Today, Adobe released the Beta 3 versions of both Adobe Flex and AIR. You may ask "Why should I care about beta software"? Well, both of these applications will be impactful if you are building, or considering building, Rich Internet Applications (RIAs). While not the only solution on the market, Flex is one of the most widely used technologies for enterprises RIAs.

What makes this release interesting? It delivers:

  • Great tools for data aggregation and for visually presenting metrics that will contribute to decision making.
  • More freedom for end-users to access tools and information without necessarily being connected to the internet.
  • Great economies of scale in creating online and offline applications in from a single effort.

We suspect that this release is a feature-complete version of what we will see in the final on which is anticipated to be available in early February 2008. If you are looking for a copy, it’s available on the Adobe Labs site.

Yes, there is some difference of opinion on this topic. It depends on the type of advertising and on the industry. Online ads are holding firm for now, while traditional advertising is leveling off and expected to decline in most sectors. General consensus is that 2008 will be okay, due to the Olympics and the US Election, but for 2009, the forecast is a bit grim.

Forecasters disagree about advertising spending in 2008. UBS, a bank, predicts that expenditure on ads will increase by 5%, whereas Goldman Sachs, a rival, forecasts that it will decline by as much as 5%.

Microsoft is now in beta for its competitor to Adobe...I have been using Adobe forever so I'm sure it will lead to better pricing/features on both sides.

Awesome news! Hopefully it will happen soon! Intel support on the Mac has been a long time coming, and way overdue.
