PayPal and Point-of-Sale at HomeDepot http://ow.ly/8oVtr

I have been a fan of PayPal for years, and a member since before they were owned by eBay. They have only gotten better over the past 5 years. I used my PayPal account for a large majority of my purchasing this past holiday season… ALL of which was done online. I have to say it was the best holiday "shopping" experience I have ever had. One thing I would enjoy is to have PayPal option at my local retail store. Would this entice me back into a retail store during holiday season? Probably not, but on a normal / non-holiday weekly basis? Absolutely. Excellent job PayPal and AJB. Looking forward to this changing the way we shop and conduct commerce.

Flash vs. HTML5

Posted by on December 14, 2011

It seems like everywhere I go the topic of #Flash vs. #HTML5 comes up. I still feel the same about the topic: These are tools to communicate a #message. If you want to reach your #audience on their #mobile devices, flash might not be a good conduit. If you want to reach an audience that has a 98% likelihood of having the #plugin installed on their #computer… flash is your answer. I still shop on a #desktop for the majority of my purchases. My wife and I bought ALL of our #Christmas gifts this year on a #laptop. This could change, but I still find shopping on a phone limited. This hopefully will change.

I enjoy Jack's opinion from greensock.com, succinct, informative, technical, but very valid points. I posted his write up below.

Flash developers out there should learn html5 and more #javascript if they plan on communicating with mobile/#tablet audiences. Find your target audience and #create something great!

I am afraid to ask for thoughts on this topic… go ahead :)
