Here is the quiz of the day.
Which Browsers Come Preinstalled with Flash Player?
Icons for IE8, Chrome2, Firefox 3, Safari 4, Opera 9
Which Browsers come preinstalled with the Flash Player plugin pre-installed?
- Internet Explorer 8 (8.0.7100.0)
- Google Chrome 2 (2.0.172.37)
- Firefox 3 (3.51)
- Opera 9.7 (9.64)
- Safari 4 (4.0.2)
Find out the answer after the break.
Break
If you guessed Internet Explorer 8 you would be right. The way I found this out is because our computer failed and I took it in to get it fixed at EBC computers who did a great job (a little pricey) and replaced the harddrive and installed Windows 7 as the OS. The first thing I did (after plugging it into our 25" monitor at home) was to download the various browsers. I then saw the page on Opera Mobile and wanted to check it out. Surprisingly none of the browsers (including Opera which was the site I was on requiring Flash Player) had the Flash Player preinstalled except for Internet Explorer 8.
And here are the screenshots to prove it.
Google Chrome Flash Plugin Screenshot
- Google Chrome isn't preinstalled with Flash Player
Safari Flash Plugin Screenshot
- Safari Browser is not presintalled with Flash Player but had a detiled pop-up
Firefox Flash Plugin Screenshot
- Firefox Browser is not presintalled with Flash Player. This was pretty lame.
Opera Flash Plugin Screenshot
Opera Browser is not presintalled with Flash Player. The lamest of all.
So what should you do if you run into this scenario? Go to Adobe of course and Get the Flash Plugin.
Thanks and as always,
Happy Flashing

This is one of those hidden gems that people talk about long after they are gone. Some of the most respected E-learning and Interactive Instructional designers will be at this conference. Sign up quickly because it is filling up fast.
Presentation:
FLOOGLYTICS = Flash + Google Analytics
Flash and Google Analytics = FLOOGLYTICS
Flash has always been considered the ugly step sister in the world of SEO and Analytics. Well now Flash takes "Center Stage". Using Google Analytics data can be extracted from Flash that could never be pulled from HTML. This session will explore the ins-and-outs of how to setup Google Analytics to work most effectively with your Flash files and how to set up Flash to work most effectively with your Google Analytics account. Go beyond just seeing what users did. See what users meant to do or even wanted to do but didn't. The most important part of the equation is how to refine this gold that Flash and Google Analytics provide. Walk away from this session armed with the tools you need to implement Flooglytics and make your site effective.
Where:
E-Learning DevCon - University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah
When:
June 17th-19th 3:30 P.M.

So my very favorite error is one Dreamweaver tried to pull. The "No Error" error.
I got this "Mystery Meat" error when uninstalling Quicktime. I clicked "OK". I hope that I don't get any Apple viruses. 
This error is even more nondescript than the "No Error" error. Their isn't much to say about this error other than "hmmmmmm..... should I pick the red pill or the blue pill?"
They really don't want me know what I chose.
