Tumblr 101: Tips And Tricks To Get Started
Adobe Flash Player 10.1 gets a release candidate
A release candidate is now available for download from Adobe Labs, and it's looking good. If you've got a compatible GPU in your system, watching HD video and playing Flash games should see a significant reduction in resource utilization.
Along with hardware acceleration support, 10.1 is also designed to play nicely with the private browsing modes built-in to all the major web browsers. It's working in Google Chrome, according to NirSoft's Flash Cookies View. My Incognito session left no traces behind from GMail or Home Depot, both of which left Flash cookies behind in my regular browsing windows.
Flash 10.1 brings a slew of other fixes and improvements (including multi-touch support). More info on the release is available in this PDF from Adobe -- I've linked it via Google's web-based viewer.
Thanks, Brad!

The only thing that I'm dreaming for, is to have the flash 10.1 bundle land on the Nexus Phone (it has been 4 months now since the debut)

With this I do hope I can get better performance on my 64bit Ubuntu machines.

How will this impact the new CHrome integrated flash?

I'm not trying to bring everything back around to Apple but I think that their persistence in refusing to allow Flash will eventually kill the format. Or at least make it about as relevant as Real Video. With the release of the iPad, many video content producers who previously were flash-only, are starting to use HTML5. Not saying it's good, but it is what it is. I believe Steve felt that if he held out long enough, he could bring about the demise of Flash, and to me it looks like he may have been right.
