Aviary
Posted by Brett Tackaberry on December 4th, 2007
These guys have been blogging since June but I just heard about them today! (thanks Amie)
Aviary is in the midst of releasing a suite of tools for creatives that is entire web-based (yes, web-based!). If you look at the list of applications they’re working on you’ll see they have an incredible range of products that cover everything from photo editing to video to 3D to music to font editing. They’ve even got some more business-y tools like a word processor and a distributed file system for storing data. And how could you not love those charming feathered icons?
From the looks of it this is production quality stuff — not just some lame rip of Adobe’s tools. Check out the examples on their blog to see what’s possible.
I haven’t played with any of them myself (yet) but it looks like they’re all built in Flash. Very cool!

Neat! This series of applications is built with AIR/Flex =)

Yeah I should have figured they were done in AIR. Pretty impressive considering how fresh that still is.
