In anticipation of the launch of Flash Player 10, I am now officially blogging at onFlash.org. At the end of the day whenever you develop with Flash CS3/CS4, Flex 2/3/4 or "Thermo" tools and frameworks you are targeting Flash Player in the browser or Flash Player within AIR, and soon Flash Player and AIR on devices. The key is that Flash is a platform and more and more we are seeing that platform grow in capability and reach. Changing my domain name to onFlash.org is about focusing on Flash as a platform.
Flash as a Platform:
This weekend there is a FlashCamp at Adobe San Francisco (601 Townsend). If you are in the bay area I strongly encourage you to attend and register today because space is limited. The Flash CS4 team is giving away Flash CS4 to registered attendees and this alone is pretty rare. I am going to be there hacking away at FP10 all evening Friday so it should be a great time.
My team will also be recording Flash 10 demos. Bring your "A" game because we are looking for killer Flash Player 10 demos for the Adobe MAX Keynote, no I am not kidding. Please make sure to get your demos recorded at the event. The MAX keynote team will be reviewing all of the entries and contacting folks about using the demos in the MAX keynote.
Seriously, it is time to get your Pixel Bending and Vector class use into shape!
Go Flash Player 10!
Go Flash, The Platform!
Cheers,

you'll need a new favicon :)
new favicon! done!

Would you also consider PDF to be a Flash platform? I learned about this at 360, and it seems like this is another little-known technology that will shake the world... Using a Flash/Flex application in a PDF.
is there any (rumored or official) release date yet for FP10?
Flash CS4 supports Flash Player 10 and typically the Flash Player ships shortly before. Sooo....We are close and I can't say more than that.
FP10 is easily the best version of Flash Player ever. I think the only comparable player for me was FP5 when ActionScript was added.
