Adobe “Thermo” at MAX?

Adobe ThermoI just caught the mention of an Adobe project, code-named “Thermo”, on MXNA. There’s a post over at pixelconsumption that caught a job position available at Adobe to work on “Thermo”. Nice find, Sam! Basically the description of “Thermo” was this:

“…an innovative new tool, codenamed Thermo, that will enable designers and creatively inclined developers to easily build rich internet applications and interactive content.”

There’s a bit more about it at pixelconsumption, but I have a feeling there might be more information at MAX. Ted Patrick mentioned MAX should not be missed and this alone will make going there well worth it. As it is right now there are so many ways to create UIs for Flex. I’d like to see the process streamlined, simplified and more powerful by making programmatic skinning more easily accessible. This is partly why I got involved with Degrafa, but hopefully “Thermo” will be the answer.

I can’t wait to see what it is and how long before it’s available.

    From the Flex/AIR live chat that was on at 4PM EST today:

    :: Question: what is Thermo
    — Answer: “Thermo” will streamline the process of adding interactivity, behavior and motion to creative assets and will work seamlessly with both Adobe’s Creative Suite tools, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Fireworks and Flash, and with developer oriented tools such as Flex Builder. ::

    :: Question: Ryan this is Lee. No marketing speak: what is thermo? :-)
    — Answer: This is Matt, come to MAX to learn more about Thermo ::

    :: Question: what about folks that can`t venture to Chicago? We need more `no marketing speak`
    — Answer: We’re not ready to talk about Thermo yet, we’re going to talk about it at MAX. It’s cool, it’s going to help make Flex apps look awesome. ::

    @Sam – I used BrightCove after trying 10 other video hosting sites. BrightCove had the best quality.
