Face It, Flash Bites!

June 4th, 2010

Apple cofounder and CEO Steve Jobs’ criticisms of Flash are included in the showcase in the form of a Thoughts on Flash statement. After reviewing Apple’s “long relationship with Adobe,” he noted that Flash is “100 percent proprietary.” He conceded that “Apple has many proprietary products, too,” such as its operating systems, but that all standards for the web should be open.

Jobs also wrote that much of the web’s video is already available in the H.264 format, which is supported in HTML5, and that there are 50,000 non-Flash games and entertainment titles in the company’s App Store. He also criticized Flash’s reliability, security, performance and effect on battery life.

Makes sense to me.
