OK, so Adobe has just released the 3rd beta of its desktop/connected platform, AIR (stupid name, Apollo was much better.) One of the sample applications is Bee, a blog editor. On first load, it asks you if you have an existing blog, of if you want to create a free one on wordpress.com. I put in my user and pass and was greeted by the “quick start” menu. It’s a pretty nice way to jump into posting a blog entry. I don’t know if I’d use it all the time, though, since I just don’t blog that much.Â
 anyway, intereting turn of events how AIR is shaping up. This is going to be a wild year with Silverlight and AIR/Flex duking it out while Google, Yahoo and others hone their AJAX-fu. I wonder what Christmas will bring a year from now. Hopefully fatter paychecks for all of us in this crazy online world.Â
