Three Screens

Author: Joe Hakooz    Category: General

For those of you unfamiliar with the term "Three Screens", it's basically a developer's dream. It means creating an application once (for the most part), and it works on "all" screens... Computer, Mobile and TV. Adobe has been talking about this for a while now and it looks like it might finally be a reality.

There are several factors that have played out to make this possible in my book...

  1. The release of Flash Player 10.1
  2. Flash Platform for the Digital Home
  3. The Open Screen Project
  4. Android's rise to power
  5. and finally... Google TV

A few companies have made attempts and failed in the past, but it looks like we will finally be able to turn on our TV, computer, or smartphone and enjoy the same interactive content.
