Adobe Photoshop Goes Online For Free
According to this article on Gizmodo.com, John Nack (senior product manager for Photoshop) has confirmed the development of Photoshop Express. When released, it will be an intuitive online photo editing package that is entirely free.
By no means, is the online application intended to replace Adobe’s current offerings, rather “make Adobe imaging technology immediately accessible to large numbers of people.”
This announcement follows Adobe’s implementation of Premiere Express, their online video editor, and it signifies a fairly progressive market plan by Adobe. In a content creation culture where every teen is a video editor, the democratization of powerful multimedia tools online allows Adobe to reach out to this new generation without abandoning their industry professional bread and butter.
