While the head of Apple, Steve Jobs is purging his shiny toys from the influence of the evil Flash, it seems developers are working out how to get around him.
Boston developer Lida Tang, 32, has worked his way into the Apple App Store with Cloud Browse.
According to USA Today, Cloud Browse is a program that lets you go to websites that feature flash video and games, including CBS.com, comedycentral.com and Nickelodeon.com.
Tang came up with a workaround that Apple can't object to. You download the free Cloud Browse App and install it. Then you direct the App to the website of your choice. The site is called up on another computer, which streams it back to your iPhone.
It works on the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad without much loss of quality.
The app is free, has been out for a few weeks, and so far has picked up 150,000 downloads, says Tang. The app has been approved by Apple, of course that it is not to say it will remain that way.
It's not really meant to be used to watch Flash, and it is a bit of a pain to use, but if Jobs Mob removes it from the Apple Store because it could be used to watch Flash, then Apple's problems are a lot more serious than we thought.
The Cloud Browse App works just about anywhere on the Web -- except for video site Hulu, which is co-owned by Fox, NBC and ABC and blocks access.
Bleeding obvious when you think about it. To get liquid over the "hump" of a siphon at some point above the gravity well effect on its hydrostatic pressure head, you have to make advantage such as suction of the lower (conversly upper) atmospheric pressure "end" of/in an upward conduit as to the higher atmospheric pressure of the liquid's body conducive of gravity and towards the "down" end, continuous until cohesive bonding between the liquid molecules' mass, weight and momentum kinetic potentials coincide in a leveling equivalence effect with the reception of said gravity's presence and the geometry of the conduit, and also only in the absence of an atmospheric vacuum, and the said applied forces, measured by the tangential friction force per unit area divided by the velocity gradient under conditions of streamline flow is greater than the liquid's resistance viscosity, and a total quantum effect being that a cat concealed in a box downwards of the conduit under flow (in the direction of the lower conversly-upper down end), may or may not be drowned. rubbishplbftasdf
