The basic idea...

"The basic idea behind open source is very simple. When programmers on the Internet can read, redistribute, and modify the source for a piece of software, it evolves. People improve it, people adapt it, people fix bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if one is used to the slow pace of conventional software development, seems astonishing...
...The Open Source pages exist to make this case to the commercial world."    - Introduction to Open Source - www.opensource.org

* Flashify

market download Flashify lets you share a url from a browser without Flash support to another browser that has Flash.

This app does not include Flash, it just makes Flash easier to access after it's installed.

I wrote it because I was annoyed that Chrome Beta doesn't support Flash and likely never will. This lets you easily switch to another browser that does support Flash without awkwardly copying and pasting the url.

Flashify has other uses too, it is useful for anyone that wants to switch browsers quickly on the same website.

It has been tested with Chrome Beta, Browser (default), Dolphin HD, Firefox, Opera Mobile, Maxithon, Puffin, Photon and should work in all browsers via the Share option.

Flash support is variable in these browsers but Photon Browser seems to be the most reliable.

To use Flashify, open your favorite browser, find the menu->Share->Flashify. Look at the screenshots to see how it works visually.
THIS APP WON'T SHOW UP IN THE APP DRAW OR THE DESKTOP. It only adds an option to the SHARE MENU IN YOUR BROWSER.

If you can't figure out how Flashify works, please email me and I will explain further. I can't respond to comments!

Flashify is open sourced on GitHub: https://github.com/GodsMoon/Flashify

Special thanks to Jose Cordoba for the new name and Rob Wilson for the video review and explanation.
