Adobe announced the release of Adobe Flash Player 9 today. While I’ve been using the beta version since it was released, I am glad to see an official release. This reconfirms my view that Adobe is interested in providing cross platform solutions.

Adobe Systems Incorporated today announced the availability of Adobe® Flash® Player 9 for Linux, the next-generation client runtime for engaging with Flash content and applications on Linux open source operating systems. Adobe Flash Player 9 delivers a consistent cross-platform experience and extends unprecedented performance and advanced features to the broadest set of developers and users to date. Additionally, Linux developers can create, test and deploy rich Internet applications (RIAs) on the Linux platform using the free Adobe Flex® 2 Software Developers Kit (SDK), Adobe Flash Player 9 and the free Flex Data Services 2 Express.

The player can be downloaded here as either a .tar.gz or .rpm. Now, if we can get Photoshop ported to Linux.

Until next time-
