Bill Gates ([create 1979]): "APL will see an incredible increase in popularity because it will be exposed to so many people. To date, it has been an expensive language to use and is almost never introduced to first time computer users. APL's strengths assure that a significant percentage of personal computer users will adopt it as "the language". However, it is not the ideal first-time language and has some limitations of its own. BASIC will continue to dominate in this role, although specialized languages will be supported by personal manufacturers. Microsoft will introduce APL on the TRS-80, Exidy Sorcerer, Interact-One, Nascom and NEC TK-80 in 1979." — Oh well.fn exp in .as:

flash-mx-notes-functionalMacromedia hat offensichtlich vor, Flash auch zu einer optimalen Plattform für kommunikative Anwendungen zu machen. Webcam- und Mikrophon-Support sind im Plug-In schon enthalten, die dazugehörige serverseitige Datenschaufler-Komponente mit dem schönen Namen Tin Can soll irgendwann im Laufe des Jahres veröffentlicht werden. Als Protokoll zum Datenaustausch wird für Video- und Audiodaten RTMP und für's sogenannte Flash Remoting das binäre AMF verwendet werden, beides bislang undokumentierte, proprietäre Protokolle (wie lange wird es wohl dauern, bis es die ersten Rogue-Spezifikationen gibt? Ewig wohl nicht).

Jeremy Allaire: "[...] [M]ore importantly[,] you can do what's called shared objects. Shared objects allow you take any object in a client in your application, a data object, or a user-interface object, and share that across a connected client. So I could have a collaborative application where multiple users are interacting with the data and the user interface. They may also be doing communications, they may also be speaking to one another and so on, but they may just be collaboratively interacting with a user interface and the data in it."

Klingt extrem spannend — was Self und Squeak schon seit Jahren in prototypischer Manier als Kansas bzw. Nebraska boten, könnte sich nun auf breiter Ebene durchsetzen. Und ist MX erst einmal als der Router kollaborativer Applikationen etabliert, so wird sich wohl Macromedia auf beinahe ewiges Leben einstellen können (und vielleicht sogar den Sprung in die Gewinnzone schaffen ;-).
