Flex & Apollo
16/03/07 16:28 | Technology
For those of you interested in web technologies, these are two Adobe products that may well change the face of web applications in the future.

A great example of what you can deliver in a browser via Flex is FlexBook. For the medically minded among you there is an anatomy book example which is very, very nice. Try turning the pages of the book by clicking and dragging the corners with your mouse. (NOTE that you will need the Flash Player version 9 installed to run these).

Apollo is not yet released but its aim is to fuse web applications and the desktop. There are no demos that you can download yet but there are some videos to watch if you have some time on your hands. This video shows how ebay is experimenting with Apollo and this video shows some internal prototypes that Adobe has developed.

So is this interesting for web applications in healthcare? Let us know what you think.
