Apple.com: Thoughts on Flash
A letter from Steve Jobs regarding Adobe’s Flash.
Our motivation is simple – we want to provide the most advanced and innovative platform to our developers, and we want them to stand directly on the shoulders of this platform and create the best apps the world has ever seen. We want to continually enhance the platform so developers can create even more amazing, powerful, fun and useful applications. Everyone wins – we sell more devices because we have the best apps, developers reach a wider and wider audience and customer base, and users are continually delighted by the best and broadest selection of apps on any platform.
Great pictures of the setup of Shepard Fairey’s May Day show at Deitch Gallery.

Interestingly, the correct spelling of Roethlisberger is also too many letters for the custom jersey website.UPDATE: TheSmokingGun.com is all over this with the actual written statements. Here’s how she wrote “Rotheseburgehergh”
