Adobe’s going to be stepping on toes! Buys online Document editing company Buzzword
Well Ryan has broken the news here Adobe has bought Buzzword. Buzzword was a super sweet doc editor created in Flex by Virtual Ubiquity. I guess most people saw an acquisition coming for them but I never imagined Adobe. This means Adobe are now entering into both Microsoft's and Google's world. Also a post on Virtual Ubiquity's blog.
but wait theres more, not only do you get a news release with details on another Adobe acquisition but you get this free tid bit of information about a new Adobe product called Share a new product. Ill update this post once I manage to get onto it
Till then there is a quick blog post on the newly created http://blogs.adobe.com/share/.
I have long wished Macromedia had never stopped Flash paper. PDFs are to big and bulky and the plugin feels clumsy in a browser window. Flash paper swfs always felt right. So this seems like we might see some movement in this area again, which is great news.

Well, it looks like an FlashPaper with the flash ‘page flip’ effect and an online storage solution (apparently 1Gb for free).
Overall, I’m not terribly impressed – maybe I was expecting something more like Google Docs. I don’t see myself using the service in its current form, although it’s nice to see more Flash/Flex-based apps.
