Honest to God I hate trudging this up every once in a while, but even though Steve Jobs “Thoughts on Flash” is nearly a year old… somehow people are just catching onto it now. I need a good repository of links that do a solid job of pointing out inaccuracies and providing clarity to the debate that can be easily shared with people who need to be educated around these issues. So here it is.
So please feel free to offer additional links in the comments. I’ve gathered these from some simple Google searches and community feedback from Twitter but am sure I’ve missed some real gems.
