They have even made a trailer out of the development of flash 8. I personally think it is too American. In my opinion all the main coding of flash 8 is done in India and yet there was now footage of their Indian programmers.

Well enough said just watch for yourself

Sorry I totally forgot to put the results of “Which will survive Flash or Director” poll, so here you go:

1. Total votes: 145
2. Both will survive: 71 votes (49%)
3. Director will survive: 3 votes (2%)
4. Flash will survive: 71 votes (49%)

What kind of poll do you want???

Very nice way to represent google news. It’s like tags, you know from flickr.com, but this is more visual.

Newsmap is an application that visually reflects the constantly changing landscape of the Google News news aggregator. A treemap visualization algorithm helps display the enormous amount of information gathered by the aggregator. Treemaps are traditionally space-constrained visualizations of information. Newsmap’s objective takes that goal a step further and provides a tool to divide information into quickly recognizable bands which, when presented together, reveal underlying patterns in news reporting across cultures and within news segments in constant change around the globe.
Newsmap does not pretend to replace the googlenews aggregator. It’s objective is to simply demonstrate visually the relationships between data and the unseen patterns in news media. It is not thought to display an unbiased view of the news, on the contrary it is thought to ironically accentuate the bias of it.

One of the many features we will see with Flash 8.
