You guys really should maintain a newsletter of some sort so you can push out notices on your progress with CheerpX.

    I already saw your Twitter link. Email is a push-oriented medium—notices comes to the (potential) customer. Twitter, OTOH, is a pull-oriented medium—the (potential) customer has to remember to check the notices from your account (and you post regularly, so it is not clear which tweets the customer should really pay attention to). It goes without saying that email is far more effective since you already have the customer’s attention, also you can do long form writing in a way that doesn’t involve extra clicks & URL shortener redirects—avoidable friction—as you would with Twitter as your delivery method.

      Of course this doesn't solve other problems for email vs Twitter but you can turn on notifications for tweets from a particular user.

    Ah, it had appeared maybe you represented Apple or the Safari team in some way with your top-level announcement.

      If Apple was going to bother with backwards compatibility, they would have it done before shutting down the old version.

    Ah, I see. Thanks! Cool technology you guys have.

I’m rooting for you, but what will you do after Adobe stops distributing the Flash plugin installer? Plus, the Flash plugin will have a time bomb that will refuse to load Flash content after the EOL date. Adobe says at https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/end-of-life.html https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/end-of-life.html: > Adobe will be removing Flash Player download pages from its site and Flash-based content will be blocked from running in Adobe Flash Player after the EOL Date.
