Flash Player 10
The multi columned text will really help text based flash. It’d be cool if they built in some easy hooks to dynamically resize the page. But the really amazing thing is that 3d stuff. Holy shit! Man, this woulda helped the BKWLD.com site out TREMENDOUSLY. This is really gonna lead to some exciting APIs. (link courtesy of Jeff)

I was totally more impressed by the language aware line breaking. Now that Adobe (a type design company) is in charge of Flash, I look forward to some real typography progress. I’ll be interested to see if these line breaks are widow aware.
