    Thursday, November 27, 2008
    MIT World has reworked their service, and all the video is now converted to Flash. Yea! This means all their videos run smoother, quicker and don't required one to use Real Video. In addition, MIT has brought online a new user interface that makes it easier to explore content and learn new ideas. However, as today is Thanksgiving in America, I will review some lighter fare from MIT: Where the Sun Shines, There They Hack Take a few minutes and learn how MIT took over the Rose Bowl scoreboard to announce they were beating CalTech (neither school even has a football team!).

  • Happy birthday Flash
    Today I sat down to write a short column for a magazine on the use of Flash as a delivery medium for e-learning. While searching for some history, I came across this Flash History by Rick Waldron.

Anyway, Macromedia acquired this product, renamed it Flash 1.0 and launched it in November 1996. A quick look at the calendar to ... them. So, happy birthday Flash.
