                       Hot Flash, ColdFusion
                       Macromedia endows bundled products with
server-side power

                       By James Karney
                       Macromedia is staking out a claim in a strategic
market space that
                       Microsofts .Net initiative seems to have
overlookedgraphically oriented
                       Web developers and their allies. You know, the
people who make pretty
                       pages, favor JavaScript over C-Sharp or Visual
Basic, and demand
                       clean, totally cross-browser Web sites that are
compatible with multiple
                       platforms. It also includes their clients, ad
agencies, training and
                       education providers, partners with big names like
IBM, and even TV
                       producers. The company is doing some
outside-the-box thinking that
                       extends its reach beyond the traditional Web
development community
                       and into the realm of next-Web convergence.

                       Best known for its Web page and image authoring
tools, Macromedia has
                       added server components to its arsenal [see More
than Eye Candy,
                       Dec. 15, 2000, p. 55], and has beefed up its
customer base to a total of
                       two million users through a combination of
mergers and licensing
                       agreements. Most recent was the acquisition of
Allaire, finalized in March,
                       which brings ColdFusion and JRun into its product
line-upback-end
                       offerings that complement its primary graphics
and page authoring
                       businesses.
