If you think you’re having a bad weekend… consider a couple of thousand people who have to face L-day as in layoff on the 15th. Not surprisingly, Adobe plans to cut jobs and announce them on December 15. Wonderful holiday present… (yes, sarcastic). The cuts aren’t limited to former Macromedia staff. Most cuts will occur where there’s duplication and some will get offered relocation packages. [ Link Beedigital ]

Got an email from a colleague asking about Fireworks. I think the application will stick around as it’s not a competitor of Photoshop or Illustrator. It’s a unique application that’s specifically for Web-based graphics. But I could be wrong. I hope not as I think the program has value that’s not found in others.
