We had moved away from proprietary and were now using Macromedia Director. We flirted with creating early knowledge management systems and went out of business the next year. We should have stuck with what we were good at. Meanwhile, I started going to massage school because I was getting bored with it all.

Question: I've been using Macromedia RoboHelp HTML X5. I am considering upgrading to Adobe RoboHelp 9. Before I do so, do you know if RoboHelp 9 will open my project? I know that X5 is very old at this point but if RoboHelp 9 rejects my X5 project, I'm stuck using X5. Answer: Yes, your X5 project, while old, will upgrade.

Remember End of an Era – Authorware – another Macromedia/Adobe product. However, if you have to prioritize Flash vs. HTML 5 vs. ??? then I would put learning Flash (especially scripting in Flash) way down on priority list at this point. These things do eventually die out. How valuable are your Authorware scripting skills at this point?
