Only two weeks have passed since we first reported on Adobe Inc’s undertaking to remove the FreshAIRapps domain and nameplate from the Web. In short, FreshAIRapps was a compendium or directory of applications built upon the Adobe AIR platform. Users could rate codeworks and read relevant news and so forth in one central location. It would be accurate to have called it a fairly popular upstart.
It sports a slightly different design, but its basic makeup is all very much intact. The one overt exception is a now-absent section originally seen at FreshAIRapps, labeled ‘Tutorials.’
There was a notable level of resentment and fury levied at Adobe for pushing forcefully for the removal of FreshAIRapps in name only. Some commenters found it peculiar that the company would enforce a trademark of “AIR.” I myself seconded such objections. Still, the site’s creator continued to converse with Adobe over the planned transfer to the RefreshingApps domain and has now officially announced the completion of the move.
