The 2009 Amgen Tour of California--America's largest cycling event, taking place this Saturday--will allow fans to watch the tour live online and track the progress of Lance Armstrong and other cyclists using Adobe Flash technology, Adobe announced today. The online Live Tour Tracker application is a showcase of the versatility of Flash's uses and will feature multiple picture-in-picture video streams.
Andy interviewed CTO of Adobe Systems Kevin Lynch about the growth of Flash and its use on different platforms late last year. Kevin's comments on Flash begin around 1:21 into the video.
