Macromedia is no more

Try this link: http://www.macromedia.com and see what happens.. the end of an era, the start of a new one.
Curious as to what Flash 9 will be. Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Freehand etc..?
Who will remember in a few years?

Sad.

I'm currently in the process of researching updated infos on some articles I had on the site before, and started noticing MANY links are dead, lots of software gone, stuff simple disappeared!?:

Discreet Plasma? No more info on the Autodesk site (have sent a mail..)
Macromedias Take Away (podcast of their news): gone!
Expression? Bought by Mircosoft!
eHelps RoboDemo? Bought by Macromedia!
Screenweaver? disappeared...

So I'll weed out all old references while I rebuild the site to keep it as up-to-date as possible.

There's some good new stuff too, stay tuned!

Thanks Peter for the heads up, I hadn't bothered checking if Screenweaver had been taken up by anyone since it seemed abandonned.

Cool to see it is now Open Source, and even cooler to see the support site is using Joomla! (or Mambo?)
