Design Industry Redesign

News has just been reported today that Adobe have reached an agreement to buyout Macromedia. You can find more information here: Adobe Press Release

This can prove to be an interesting change for the design industry. Two of the biggest, if not the two most important, companies are merging. This can mean better products, leading to universal compatibility. Then again, this can also mean the take over of an industry and the loss of compitition. I am sure there will be good and bad news that would come out of this merge.

And only time will tell if this proves to be a good thing. Hopefully, the good will outweigh the bad.
