Adobe Flash is gonna’ hit Smartphones before you know it, they announced their support for Blackberry, Android, WebOS, Windows Mobile, and Symbian systems among the others.
I’ve been using an Android phone for nearly a month now and I do have the beta version of the Adobe Flash 10 player on it. Yes, it’s Flashy and it’s seamles.
Online Ads & Microsites go Mobile
With such a multimedia capable player going mobile there’s no more divide between Computer n’ Handheld devices in terms of reach and accessibility by advertisers. Having that said, many iPhone/Android applications that were made around limitation of having no Flash support to gather data from Flash based websites will deminish for good.
So what happens next? Now the whole tranformation of Desktop browser Ads to Mobile browser Ads starts. It won’t be anymore about showing the right content to Mobile users but showing Mobile Ads to Mobile users. And this transition will take place
FAST! This change in Ad format or utility will be fast for two important reasons:
- The same authorware, serving, and reporting systems that are used for normal web banners and matrixes could utilize n’ serve Mobile Ads
- Unlike the Mobile Web(sites), Mobi, or em-dot Mobile Flash Ads won’t be a luxury add-on to your website to make it Accessible on Mobiles but in addition accelerating sites Ad-Space-Burnup; Selling more Ads. Thus, it will be a priority
So whoever said Mobile Ads will be slow, and that year would come sometime but we never know “when”. It’s Now!.

Finally did the switch to my first ever Nokia. Slick, Cheque, and Slim. E71. An iSync plugin and I was set with all my contacts and calendar items from my P1. Sony Ericsson is a religion as you know, not just a phone brand, but the delay in their releases kills! Another issue with SEs is that it gets really slow once you have your E-Mail client loaded with e-mails and files all over the directories. Couldn’t wait for the X1 nor the P3 and iPhone is out of question for me (it ain’t my thing).
It’s amazingly/weirdly neat, I’ll leave the review part as Steve Litchfield has written a great one.

The new tag line or the catch phrase for the new OperaMini beta 4 is “The web for the Now Generation”. At the first glance I read it as “for the New generation”. Got back and I was wondering why was the “N” in capital, then read it as it was–Now. It can’t be a typo, not cuz Opera wouldn’t make mistakes but “New Generation” has been repeatedly used and absued for the last decade. Time for something new, “Now Generation”?
First thing that came to my mind was the “Play Now” technology that comes with Sony Ericsson Mobiles. Which got me to the idea of having thins Instantly, PlayNow is a pay per listen service via a media player in SE phones. And now “Now Generation”. A generation that wants everything instantly and can’t wait.
If my reading of the phrase and their objective is right, then it’s all about having it instantly. Neat! The all “Now” style is hot and portrays the right “Now” attitude and demand from the web-users on Mobiles.
