Adobe Flash Player 10 sneak peek at MAX

Uncategorized

Well… This is quite old (last October) but I just watched it only. Adobe gave a sneak peek into Flash Player 10 and showed off the new RTL, multi-column text engine, the new 3D features, and the new bitmap effect scripting language, Hydra.

Flash Player 10 (Astro) Sneak Peek at MAX Chicago 2007 Keynote

Very neat! But not what I was hoping to come out for Flash Player 10. I was kinda hoping on improvements on the UI. Flex has these really nice containers that I wish were part of Flash too. Didn’t quite like the way Flex and Flash are different products too. I dislike seeing code in XML files (Flex) and I working on presentation without XML is painful (Flash).

Some celebrities will do anything to get in the spotlight. Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, and Shrek, Fiona, The Gingerbread Man, Pinocchio, and a Donkey. Yes, itâ??s the sex tape youâ??ve all been waiting for â?? The Shrek Sex Tape.

Attack of the YouTube videos

Uncategorized

I’ve got so much YouTube videos to post! I am afraid I might just flood the whole blog with videos I wish to share. Now I’m “time-capsuling” it to release for further dates.

YouTube videos are by far the easiest way to fill up your blog and it’s fun too. And thanks to the use of flash movie, little code maintenence is required on my part.

My only wish is that the code can be shorter. I wish it would be even neater. Today the code is posted this way

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/whatever"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/whatever" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

As you can see, it’s pretty messy due to browser compatibility and web standards.

If only it can be something like this:

<code><object type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/whatever” rel=”wmode-transparent” width=”425″ height=”350″ /></code>

Well… Just an opinion.

Hitachi’s new technology allows more data recording by aligning the bits perpendicularly thus saving space on the hard disk. Don’t know what I am talking about?

Video speaks a million bits!

Hitachi flashes new perpendicular hard disk technology.

_(Hitachi flashes new perpendicular hard disk technology.)_

Check out Flash animation of bits and hard disk dancing around in Hitachi’s Get Perpendicular Flash animation.

It just means smaller Hitachi MP3 players. You’ve got to admit that it’s a pretty cool way to educate the general public about your technology. ;)

I love to see more of similar animations.
