All the buzz about HTML5 in 2010 and the Apple/Adobe rift makes it pretty easy to think it was a grim year for Flash. But the Flash team at Adobe wouldn’t agree. They’ve posted The Flash Platform Top 10 for 2010, an interesting list reminding us that 2010 was actually a pretty good year for Flash developers. Apart from all the worrying that the sky was falling or that their skill set was going to go the way of horse-drawn carriage repair.

I have to agree that the launch of InMarket was pretty important, even if it hasn’t received much buzz yet.
The Adobe post didn’t mention the Flash-to-HTML5 demo or SkyFire bringing Flash to iOS and Android.
