To upgrade, please visit: Flash Player Download Center." Isn't it weird that companies would claim their product is web-based but then requires you to install "web-based" technologies. Is there a difference between download and install? Ok, download means you download the file to your computer and then run setup. Web install means you click on a link and it will install it for you. Where's the difference? These kind of applications are not web-based. They just want to ride on the bandwagon that if you want to be cool, you must call your product web-based even if it is not. Will it work in my officemate's browser? Will it work in my neighbor's browser? Will it work in my wife's browser? A web-based application can say 'Yes' without the "but you need to have blah blah" crap. This reminds of Office Live, which according to Microsoft is their web-based office application, but requires a Microsoft Office 2003. Regards.

It’s about some discovery from Ella’s (Babytuknene) status message in Yahoo Messenger. It’s a browser-based web meeting called Vyew. This is something that small groups could use for web meetings. For instance, a group who’s doing a web-based development project could have their meetings online. A thesis group could also use that. Read more of my article here.
