What is the Future of Adobe Flash?
Rean John UeharaThe fate of Adobe Flash is in a stir lately. Who wouldn't talk about it when two Steve's are out there to get it by the neck? Steve Jobs and Steve Ballmer have decided that Flash's reign is over. At least in the sense that Microsoft and Apple and other major technology companies have started shifting from Flash to different platforms. What's in store for developers and users? Users would wonder if they're affected by this change. Depending on what they use their devices for, it might make or break a lot of things. Take for example gamers. There are major gaming websites that focus on Flash like Kongregate and Newgrounds, I guess Apple users won't be able to play games anymore.

Two Steve's are actually moving away from Flash, the other Steve is Steve Ballmer, Microsoft's CEO. Imagine that? Two huge industry giants versus Adobe Flash! Is the future of Adobe Flash grim? Before addressing the real issue here, let's first look at why Flash is a target and not others.
