Is this "agreement" a fact you can unambiguously prove by pointing out to some statement from an Adobe person, or is this a subjective assumption.
Another subjective assumption there: company losing the game because of a disruptive product? I sure hope they acknowledge this pronto and refocus to cope with the changes!
- JuDue 14y agoAndroid was expanding more rapidly than iOS. What reason do you suggest for them not latching onto that opportunity?
- dheavy 14y agoI don't know work at Adobe so I wouldn't know, really. My only guess would be based on "The Innovator's Dilemma", at least roughly... so acknowledging the disruptiveness of HTML5 would imply refocusing their priorities in a mid/long-term strategic move: maybe rethinking how Flash should be used (i.e. game creation platform instead of RIAs) and buying startups involved in the disruption. More a sane, opportunistic move for the business, rather than a judgement over the objective quality of a product.
