I’m pleased to announce the first episode of the Digital Media Podcast, a weekly audio series that will discuss the business and technology of digital content.

For the first episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Tim Gilmour from Dualform Studio.

If you’re a digital content creator, it’s an interesting episode as it touches upon the Flash Video vs. HTML5 debate from a content creator and web developer perspective.

    We had this conversation this week. Our videos are h.264 on our subscription-based video websites. Using a different player should not be a big deal, when the market demands it.
    However for applications we develop in Flash (alternative to Director) this is not so easy. We have a client for whom we maintain a flash-based web training system (proprietary LMS) used annually by nearly 5,000 medical residents. We have decided to keep it in Flash for at least the next year.
    I have talked to a few Mac fanatics who want everything to be iPad compatible now, but they are the minority among our niche customers – for now. This may change any moment, but we choose to let our customers drive change.
