Adobe are about to launch something that only Adobe could come up with. AMDM – Adobe Museum of Digital Media is the latest release brainstorm by Adobe Inc. Appropriately, the digital world is about to get it’s own platform that will showcase how digital media is used (and bent) with the Adobe Master Suite, and some extremely ingenious uses of the products we use as developers every day.
Check it out, there is a prelude video, and the announcement of the first Digital Media Artist: Tony Ourlser, a truly incredible Digital Artist, the showcase of his work speaks for itself.
What can we say? Except Finally, a return to the original MK roots! Check out this promo Video for the prelaunch of Mortal Kombat. The return of Fatalities is just the best news since …well…MK3 showcased on PS1 and Super NES. New feature, X-Ray Damage, totally cool, each character with its own unique damage direction. Cyrax looks off the hook, and Kung Lao’s Hat Rotator Saw Fatality is “sick” (awesome). The Arena’s of old make a welcomed returned, but tuned up to look how they should have looked had the technology been available 15 years ago.
Now, if only Ed Boone would bring back SubZero of MK3 Fame, then I would be one happy Kombatant.
Apple has announced the details of the iPhone’s new operating system, the iPhone OS 4, which will be available to use on Apple iPhones and iPod Touches this summer.
Apple claims that the new operating system will provide more than 100 new features, including iBooks, the new ebook reader and online Apple bookstore that debuted on the Apple iPad. The main feature being “Multitasking”. After attending the online Keynotes today I can’t help but wonder if the lack luster of MAC releases of late, is at the stage where we are no longer impressed and are waiting for something more?
From what we have seen on the web, CS5 is probably one of the most anticipated releases from Adobe to date. Some of the editing features in Photoshop alone are breath-taking, pretty much what we have wanted for years will now be possible in the new Suite. Major differences: Flash as a stand alone app is no more. Flash Catalyst replaces what used to be Flash CS, and Flex 4 is now the main thrust behind Flashes online delivery Engine. More about this on a separate post.
First off, I want to say – iPad is a beautiful looking piece of hardware! Apple are outstanding when it comes to design of any of their range of products. Now, down to business…what we have liked and not liked so far:
we have joined the MSN Network and are currently product testing Microsoft’s New Range of Software for Web and Server Technologies. Expression 3 Suite and Visual Studio 8 are the programs that MS have offered over. We have to say, the direction that MS has taken on Open Policy is welcomed with arms wide open, it really is a significant step in the right direction.
