What’s been going on around here for the last week or two? What happened to the regular posts? Has the GFC affected The Green Room?
Questions you may all have since our last post 10+ days ago. We probably should’ve told you, but we took a short break from writing last week and focused on some other stuff, which we’ll tell you more about soon. That said, we’re back now and all is under control at tgrblog.com, so keep visiting and look out for our WWDC 2009 coverage which will begin soon! – r.
WWDC is under two months away and as usual, TGR will be providing in-depth coverage of the week’s events, including of course our keynote liveblog. If your company is interested in sponsoring the liveblog, be sure to email us and we’ll send you some more detailed information. – r.

Adobe CEO, Shantanu Narayen has revealed that Apple will be teaming up with Adobe to make Flash for the iPhone. The iPhone friendly version will not be as watered down as the ‘lite’ version but it also cannot be as resource-heavy as the desktop version. Apple and Adobe have not put a date on the completion of the product but Adobe’s CEO said that he was “pleased with progress” as far back as June of last year.
