Flash gaming: Doing deals with Chris Hughes. Flash has one of the most remarkable stories in recent game technology. As we've discussed over the last couple of days, it's survived acquisition, competition and the rise of mobile phones to deliver a thriving webgame community that's enjoying considerable financial reward. At the heart of this business is Flash Game License, a company which brokers a huge number of deals between indie developers and portals, small and large.

We spoke at length to co-founder Chris Hughes about the mechanics of the Flash gaming scene, from what US players are worth, compared to European and Chinese, to what it takes to make a Flash game worth $50,000.

Newsstand apps built with Adobe Digital Publishing Suite. Adobe says its Digital Publishing Suite is being used by leading publishers who have delivered Newsstand-enabled iOS apps. Newsstand is a feature of iOS 5 that handles newspaper and magazine subscriptions, downloading new issues in the background and displaying the cover of the latest issue.
