Like Flash? Try HTML5

I had a conversation with my mom a couple of weeks ago about not being able to use a lot of Facebook's apps on our iPhones. for those of you with farms or mafia or cafes to manage, you know that not having access to these apps when you are away from your computer can be a pain.

I tried to explain to my mom apple's stance on Flash vs. HTML5. Now truthfully, a lot of this went over my head, but I knew enough to tell her that Flash is ok, but HTML5 is better and that most developers are moving to HTML5. She got the idea of what I was saying but was still upset. I read a blog that Steve Jobs posted on apple's website that helped me to better understand the why. Read his post here and hopefully understand better as well.
