Lisa Awards: Most Overloaded Product Name

In honour of the Oscar’s, which itself honours those of us who make millions of dollars for doing their job, I thought it was time for the geeks to have their own award show. This is the first in a series that awards a Lisa to those that deserve it.

To start with, Adobe announced Air today, and they win the award for “Most Overloaded Product Name” :)

In all seriousness, congrats to the Adobe team for the 1.0 release!

What about the other awards?

Got some ideas for awards you would give?

    To be fair, Adobe was the one to announce Air before Apple did it.

    But I thought AIR doesn’t support overloading?

    Hehe, I accidentally found http://www.adobeair.com/ and immediately remembered this very blog post. Very funny.

    No, this is no spam.
