Adobe CS4 unveiled
Adobe is calling the latest release of its ubiquitous Creative Suite a milestone -- but users expecting a radical change will probably disagree. CS4 is less about fancy new features, and more about workflow -- that is, making the products work better together. The Suite, officially unveiled Monday night, contains hundreds of refinements designed to "bring down the walls" in the creative process, by making it easier to move content between applications and by adopting a consistent user interface across the entire suite. Adobe has also added more web-accessible content and Connect Pro meeting software for instant communication between artists and developers. There are new features as well, but the real meat in this release is the improved integration, efficiency and collaboration tools.

New Adobe betas online
Adobe has posted betas of three applications from the next version of Creative Suite, including Dreamweaver, Fireworks and Soundbooth. Dreamweaver is the company's signature web design tool, and now includes a Related Files Toolbar as well as Code Navigator, which lets users explore pages with complex elements such as XML data and JavaScript links. Particularly important in the software is the new Live View Mode, which incorporates a live preview browser based on the WebKit engine. This eliminates the need to keep a separate browser running, and also lets users freeze JavaScript for debugging purposes.
