This is a joke, right?

It’s been a while since I’ve written something here. I was observing the “no blogging during the two weeks surrounding a boring celebrity wedding and religious leader death” tradition that so many other bloggers completely ignored.

But this is too weird to pass up. So I’m breaking my silence and posting the completely way-out-there news that Adobe just bought Macromedia. All the graphic designers in the world are currently picking their collective jaws up off the ground and re-reading the press release to pick up on the joke. Because it has to be a joke, right?

RIP Macromind-Paracomp-Authorware-FutureSplash. You had a good run.
