Flash 9 For Linux

One of the things I apparently missed during my hiatus from being online was Adobe releasing Flash 9 ‘prerelease’ for Linux. I spotted it on digg just now and was pleasantly suprised.

Installation was a simple matter of replacing the plugin file in ~/.mozilla/plugins and restarting Firefox. Ta da – Flash 9 lovin’ :) I’m personally not that bothered about Flash support, I’ll take it if it’s there though. I do think that Flash support is important if people are expected to migrate from other platforms to Linux, so I’m pretty chuffed. Although, this does give less excuse to bitch about flash websites which don’t work for me…

    I wondered which should be used for dynamics sites using flash css javascript forms etc.
    I was looking at this companies corporate plan and would like to have the option to set up several seperate websites for different customers
    assigning each an allotment of space with seperate access by them and allowing me access is this site suitable for my needs or is it as it seems just too good to be true???
