Important update
I have recently been informed that Adobe systems believe that this website and it's domain name are in infringement of their trademarks. This is because I am using the word AIR in the domain name freshAIRapps.com.
Adobe seem to think that they own the trademark of AIR and that I can't use it and should hand the domain over to them and stop the website. After reading through the list of Adobe trademarks (which can be found here) they only reference Adobe AIR and not AIR. However the following paragraph I believe is open to abuse by Adobe:
“Adobe® AIR™” is a trademark of Adobe that may not be used by others except under a written license from Adobe. You may not incorporate the Adobe AIR trademark, or any other Adobe trademark, in whole or in part, in the title of your Developer Application or in your company name, domain name or the name of a service related to Adobe AIR.
I have been in communication with members of the Adobe evangelist team who truly believe that I am helping the community and promoting the use of the AIR runtime and subsequent applications built on the platform. I started this site because I have a genuine interest in AIR and other Adobe technologies.
I feel that Adobe has let me and the community down by trying to block sites that appear to challenge their marketplace, even though none of the apps featured on this site are hosted by me.
refreshingapps.com
The site will continue but under a new domain, which has been forced on me by Adobe to my financial loss. The new site will be redesigned as a pure showcase site for apps to promote the hard work and effort done by the community. It is this I want to promote, not Adobe. So move you bookmarks over to:
Thanks for your on-going support.
P.S For all those who have sent in suggestions, I will be taking them over to the new site as soon as I can so please hang in there.
