Wow, no doubt The Eco Zoo represents one of the best Papervision 3D applications or website ever created. At least that’s my opinion, and I have seen lots of Papervision 3D sites already.
The bonus is that the story and idea of the site could only be represented and understood using Papervision. If you look at this website it’s impossible to imagine it being done only with Flash and not this great 3D development behind.
eWeek made an interview with Kevin Lynch where many facts are discussed and where you can have an idea of Adobe position about many issues.
The interview is dedicated to many factors, tools and ideas. You will see what Kevin thinks about open source and how Adobe is living with that. CS4 also made part of the interview, Silverlight, Expression and Chrome.
At some point and when asked about competition with Microsoft Kevin said:
“I would say Creative Suite is really light years ahead of where Microsoft is coming in with tooling. So we’re just going to keep focusing on our customers, working to innovate and not be distracted by how we might be pursued in some cases.”
There’s no doubt that this article is interesting and you won’t give your time as loose if you go and read the full interview.
