For the most part you need to have purchased the right kind of tools to create Flash software, or acquired a license to the Flash server technology. As well, to the best of my knowledge, no one besides Adobe can change the underlying Flash

Except that I can't actually access the app from that URL, so I wouldn't consider that equivalent. Rich apps like Google Wave, however, can be accessed directly in the browser, as can apps like Gmail and Google Latitude. It's unfortunate th

I would disagree. Just because the App Store is designed to make it easier to get apps onto the phone, nothing prevents these apps from being accessible by URLs. In fact, many iPhone-friendly apps are available as web apps that simply look

I think if Opera provided an explanation of how to set up a "Unite server" on your own server, than a lot of this controversy would be moot. That's why Google was so epic with their launch of Wave.

Actually, I do understand that. That's why I said that they were using a "P2P-like" network... Given that it's an alpha, it's pretty awesome that it works as it does, but this deficiency — tying you to an "operaunite.com" domain — is primar

Was I cherry-picking things? I tried to be pretty balanced, though that might be impossible given that I was among those laid off. Things are still apparently being figured out among the remaining management, but that there was no public ac

The point was to document what was going on, so that users of the MyVidoop service would make a decision about whether to stay or not. As well, it was a post on my personal blog — kind of the point to be somewhat personal, right? ;)
