Adobe Edge - demo

A co-worker of mine who is a Filemaker programmer knows I'm trying to hone my chops on Javascripting and AJAX and saw this in the NYTimes yesterday...

Adobe, Creator of Flash, Embraces HTML5 - NYTimes.com

I would download it and fuck around with it at work right now, except we run XP on our PCs here (this company is so far behind the curve, tech wise) and I have to wait to download it to my laptop at home.

HTML5 tools, Animation tools - Adobe Edge Preview | Adobe Labs

I, for one, am pretty excited about this...if it works well, that is. I really am not fond of Flash.

I downloaded it yesterday and played with it for a few minutes. My first impression is it's pretty much set up like After Effects for the web. Composition setup and all that. Pretty nice. I wouldn't be surprised to see them just roll Flash into this interface as one entire package.

If you do play with it I recommend downloading the sample files they've created. I find that easier to dig into what can be done with it.

I played with it for a minute this morning- interesting. time to relearn everything... or let someone else do it

I don't want to ever learn anything new ever again.
