YouTube is testing video delivery using the HTML5 draft and the Open Standards crowd says Flash will die. The iPad will not support Flash and tech journalists make bold headlines and proclaim the death of Flash. A Javascript experiment plays back Flash files and bloggers proclaim Javascript is the new Flash. Apparently the Flash platform is under attack these days but what else is new?

Flash on the beach 2009 - Day 3

September 23rd 2009 | John Dalziel

Even after two days of sessions and parties there was still an impressive turnout for the 9am sessions on day 3 at Flash on the beach. The day was filled with great sessions, but "the bomb" was certainly Ralph Hauwert announcing that he has quit the Papervision3D team to pursue personal goals. This means that PapervisionX is up in the air, but not entirely.
