Adobe to acquire Macromedia
Adobe to acquire Macromedia: Announcement went out three years ago today. Seems longer. Why, back then we didn't even have YouTube... things have changed a lot since then.

This is all the more interesting because when CS3 was about to launch in May last year, Adobe uploaded the first teaser video on YouTube.

Dang--no YouTube three years ago? How did our nation's skateboarding bulldogs and nut-kicked soccer players suffer so long in obscurity??

I'm still bitter about YouTube. I remember first seeing it thinking, "duh, that's easy." $1.65 Bn later I hate myself.
