Today Adobe launched Acrobat.com, a suite of online services.
Buzzword is an online document application which can be shared and collaboratively worked on.
Adobe ConnectNow is a conferencing screensharing application.
You can also create (a limited number) of online PDF documents.
Also you are able to upload and share files.
A nice full review of the service.
Having a few issues since I had my MacBook Pro upgraded to Leopard with the way in which Acrobat interacts with Safari.
Everytime I try and open a PDF from Safari, it crashes…
It appears to be related to Acrobat, specifically, the AdobeSelfHealing plug-in!
Solution delete the Adobe PDF plug-in hopefully. Though this does mean Safari will use Preview instead of Acrobat.
Adobe have announced that:
Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq: ADBE) today announced that Microsoft has licensed Adobe® Flash® Lite™ software, Adobe’s award-winning Flash Player runtime specifically designed for mobile devices, to enable web browsing of Flash Player compatible content within the Internet Explorer Mobile browser in future versions of Microsoft Windows Mobile phones. Microsoft has also licensed Adobe Reader® LE software for viewing Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) documents including email attachments and web content. Both Adobe products will be made available to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) worldwide, who license Windows Mobile software.

This is interesting when you consider the Nokia – Silverlight deal and the lack of Flash on the iPhone.
