MediaPost Publications Jobs Getting The Lash For Flash Comments 02/19/2010

The comments I posted at Mediapost say what I need to say:

"Jobs is starting to show himself as out of touch. The days of the Apple faithful blindly following (Particularly when it comes to Flash) are long gone. The ONLY reason video has finally begun to make it as a medium on the internet is because of Flash Video embed.... Take it from me, I have fought in the video platform wars and I don't want any of it back....Think about it: "Should we use Windows or Quicktime or Realplayer? what's an mpeg? or mov or avi or rlp or, or, or..... YouTube and Hulu live because Apple jumped ship and Adobe jumped on and finally put video in the most prolific playback app - er - 'browser': Flash. Stop the posturing and admit it, Apple lost BIG on this one... Signed, a developer who has dug in those trenches."

How the IPad Will Change the Advertising Business - Small Agency Diary - Advertising Age

What may really make the difference here is the creation of a platform for distribution that appeals to the digerati rather than those who are still married to the paper form.
