Adobe Flash Now Officially a Part of Google Chrome

MacGene noted that Google has announced plans to include Flash with Chrome. This step will make Chrome easier for Mom & Pop to use, but comes with a host of issues that have been discussed here before. I expect them to announce Silverlight Thursday.

  1. CmdrTaco is en fuego by Red+Flayer · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Hey, not that it has anything to do with anything, but Rob is ripping the one-liners attached to article summaries today.

    This article:
    I expect them to announce Silverlight Thursday.

    The Novell/SCO article:
    No doubt this is the last we will ever hear of any of this.

    The NASA/Toyota article:
    We're really in trouble when NASA has no choice but to call Bruce Willis.

    The slow-people-down-with-obstacles-article:
    All of that is gonna work a lot better than my strategy of placing car-sized holes covered with twigs and branches randomly every half mile or so down the interstates.

    Is CmdrTaco giddy with anticipation of some giant prank for Thursday? If he on the gigglejuice? Is he just happy spring is here?

    Who knows... but it's nice to see some light-hearted editorialization for a change.

    And, now, rightfully so, please mod this post into oblivion.

  2. Processes per page? by wiredlogic · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Presumably this integration will allow multiple flash apps on a page all running in a single flash process. This could have dramatic performance benefits in page loads and memory utilization.
