Don’t get me wrong – my wife and I love the Mac and find Apple’s products brilliant. However, in response to my post yesterday about the lack of Flash Brian McBride made a great comment:
It is about time someone runs down the isle past the memorized drones and smashes the Apple/Jobs screen with [...]

With the latest details about the iPhone from the Apple WWDC today, it made me consider the main thing that I feel the iPhone lacks – support for Flash. With Apple rolling out the developers, the example apps along with all the marketing and “I want one now” encouragement, Flash is losing out.

After a long absence – basically because this site is the last website that I end up updating and I haven’t ended up updating many of my sites recently – I’ve updated this site. More to do with Wordpress hacking exploits but also to do with the latest version of Wordpress which continues to [...]

Not an event I was able to attend because I was teaching, but it looked really good. A number of sessions have now been uploaded so you can watch it again. Not as wide ranging as actually being there, but some in-depth, interesting and detailed presentations are all online.

As part of a well written piece about web accessibility I was very pleased to see the BBC identifying something that everyone needs to be made aware of. Far too often so called ‘experts’ say using Flash is a complete waste of time in terms of accessibility, unfairly criticising the technology.

In the short article the BBC identify how Flash can be used in a really positive way to make things more accessible.

The furore that stood for my (and other’s) attempts to install and uninstall Internet Explorer beta 2 back in April is well documented – see this post. I consequently held off installing Beta 3, simply because I didn’t have the heart to tackle all the problems again. However, with the impending ‘urgent’ automatic installations of Internet Explorer 7 via Windows Update which are expected some time this month, I thought I’d get things over with.

What follows are a few images that show the ‘progress’ of the installation. If this all sounds a bit too pointless and pathetic, well – possibly true – but then you must have missed my joys at Beta 2.

With no further ado, the installation of Internet Explorer 7 RC1….

I’ve just signed up for a virtual tradeshow – the PC Magcast virtual tradeshow. Not sure there is going to be an enormous amount of specific interest in relation to education and ICT, but it got me thinking in that so many events need to be more like this. Granted, the major positive thing about shows and conferences is the networking and social interaction, but I really do think there is a role for things like this.

How about if the BETT show was like this? [The BETT show is the British Education Technology Show that takes place in London every January] You certainly wouldn’t have an opportunity to gain as many pens for your classroom, but I think there might actually be benefits from taking things in a different direction. I remember not being incredibly impressed with the whole thing this year.

I hasten to add I’m pretty sure it isn’t an issue with Firefox, but I’m not entirely sure. As I’m developing Flash content, I constantly preview the content using Firefox, but the .html displaying the .swf and the .swf directly. It never used to happen, but since being automatically updated to the latest [...]
