New Rich Internet Application is out on the market – Pixlr, a web based image editor, was launched on 17th of August 2008! The most interesting thing is that is created by one person and is by far the closest image editor to Photoshop. Pixlr has layers, filters, adjusments, brushes, etc.

HTML Editor in Flex? Can we say that squarespace has managed to do that? Although isn’t a complex one it is a start. What is next? We can think that in the future Dreamweaver may become a web RIA. Or some other HTML Editors will be created using Flex and AIR.

How does Google do this? [...]
