Wow what a great day for RIA and Flex. First PhotoShop Express launches their public beta and now SlideRocket.
For those who don’t know. SlideRocket is a web application that provides everything you need to design professional quality presentations, manage and share libraries of slides and assets, and to deliver presentations in person or remotely over the web.
Soon I will be able to step away from my desktop tools and simply work with Buzzword, SlideRocket, and blist for my word processing, presentation, and spreadsheet needs.

Adobe has launched Photoshop Express, a free Flex based web application.
Photoshop Express is an image editing software that aids users even with a limited knowledge of photo editing to create special effects to their images, the company noted. The latest Photoshop software allows users to store up to 2GB of images online for free, make edits to their photos, and share them online in creative ways, including downloading and uploading photos from popular social networking sites.
