Playing Well With IPad

by Tom

IPad does not show the blue Lego icon that they formerly used to indicate that Flash is not supported on a given device. This may mean that Apple doesn’t see iPad’s lack of support for Flash as a shortcoming of the device, but instead as deficiency in the site you’re choosing to view on iPad, which doesn’t use tech that iPad can handle.

Some people, Grant Skinner for instance, think that the hardware is actually what is missing something, and Skinner went to the trouble of creating created the blueLego edition of SWFObject 2.2, which could theoretically be used to put that blue Lego piece right back into place.

(Free Bonus: Did you know that he word ‘Lego’ is a shortening of the Danish phrase ‘leg godt’, which means, ‘play well’?)

I did not know that, sir. I used to love Lego as a kid. I even had set the Lunar Landing Set 565 back in ’75.
