Editor's Notes
- Flash: 8 million downloads per day (3 billion per year): Source: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Stewart/?p=691 YouTube and MSN Video (as of 2008-01) both use Flash video players and download the videos as *.FLV (Flash video) files.
- Similarities to the transition from character-mode DOS to the original 16-bit Windows.
- Yahoo Finance’s stock charting page has a beta version that uses Flash. Highly interactive. Nice animation. Pre-Flash version generates the charts on the server and downloads them as PNG files. Pre-Flash problems: Slow to update, wastes network bandwidth and server CPU cycles. http://finance.yahoo.com/charts/#chart1:symbol=adbe;range=my;compare=msft;indicator=split+dividend+volume;charttype=line;crosshair=on;logscale=off;source=undefined
- Picnik.com is an online photo-editor application implemented in Flash. The main pages are entirely Flash, no HTML. See: http://www.picnik.com/app
- Retained mode graphics system vs. WM_PAINT messages. Specify the shape of an object once and WPF/SL takes care of drawing it from then on. Move whole shape just by changing its origin coordinates. WPF gets hardware acceleration, SL does not. WPF and SL coordinates are floating point values not integers (Win32, WinForms, HTML): WPF coordinates are in double-precision floating point: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms742562.aspx SL coordinates are floating point like WPF, but in units of pixels not WPF’s DIPs: Nathan’s SL 1.0 book: p69.
