Flash through the years

History of Flash

Adobe have created a great interactive overview of Flash for it’s tenth anniversary. The piece itself is a showcase for what the Flash player can now do, audio, video, and advanced interaction (make sure to give the world a spin with your mouse).

They do break two of the Vixiom design rules

  1. Don’t use overly long transitions between content (cool the first time, annoying thereafter)
  2. Kern all type including numbers!!! (All the years in the 90s, 1996 etc., have a gap you could drive a truck through after the ‘1′, my typography professor would have failed them on the spot)
