Apple has clearly hurt Adobe’s feelings. When Steve Jobs demonstrated an iPad at Wednesday’s tablet event, its Safari browser clearly did not support Flash. Adobe has published a blog post calling Flash the Apple iPad’s “broken link.” And now Adobe’s platform evangelist Lee Brimelow has compiled an illustrative montage (partly screengrabbed above) in an effort to illustrate what the lack of Flash means for the iPad.

Note row two, column two. Adobe has included a porn site. Though porn is certainly relevant to many people’s web experiences, that’s kind of a desperate move. My friend Matt Drance, Apple’s former iPhone evangelist, summed up what this means on Twitter: “Adobe has resorted to playing the porn card. It’s over.”

Culture Buzz Browse through 53 archival issues of Playboy, for the articles of course, and zoom at will. Downside is installing Microsoft‘s Silverlight, which is like Flash, only not actually Flash. Upside is issues ranging from 1954 to 2006 — you can read Nabokov and Sartre, and then you can watch how everything went downhill fast in the ’80s.
