Adobe Project ROME is here! All-in-one Content Creation & Publishing Tool

In case you missed the announcement over the weekend Adobe released a public beta of Project ROME. Project ROME is unlike any other app out there in that it's an all-in-one content creation tool for vector/raster images, video and animations as well as web sites. On the surface ROME appears to be a simple easy to use basic program and that's a good thing. This product is aimed at casual users. However, unlike most basic programs, ROME allows you to go deep if you need to. I was floored with the number of options available.

You can download your copy of ROME here or just use it in your browser! That's the beauty of ROME, it was built entirely as an AIR app.

 

To get you started I recorded these 5 very short videos:

  1. Hmmm…. interesting. I guess everyone needs to throw their hat in the ring with regard to “cloud” computing and services as this is an area of huge growth while boxed software sales in some categories are flat or on the decline but I can’t help wondering who this product is targeted towards. I suppose this could harvest alot of casual users who wouldn’t really be customers of the premium professional products offered by Adobe and somehow either channel them into paid products or at least advertise Adobe products to them via this tool. Although a nifty tool can attract a great number of users, the difficulty as in all web based services is monetizing it either directly or indirectly. It’ll be interesting to me to see where Adobe goes with this.
