Under My Palapa

Not that it matters much, but my post 10 months ago about the Flex brand has come to fruition.

So Flex is now just a framework, otherwise known as a library, at the core of Flash Builder.

I’m not big on Flex/Flash, but I know a lot of management-type people are. I try to use it sparingly.

I just received a survey from Adobe through LinkedIn that suggests they are thinking about the naming of their Flash products. There are 3 products – the traditional Flash Profressional, Flex Builder, and the soon to be Catalyst (Thermo) product. Sounds like they want to dump the ‘Flex’ brand, and possibly align these as Flash Creator, Flash Catalyst, and Flash Builder. Makes sense to me.

[Update] Indeed, 10 months later Adobe has renamed Flex Builder to Flash Builder.
