Adobe kills off Freehand, GoLive

During last week’s Adobe Live event, Adobe announced that it would halt development of Freehand and GoLive, according to Macsimum News. The programs are the first to be axed since Adobe’s acquisition of the company late last year. Their elimination is not unexpected, though, since the products overlapped Adobe’s Illustrator and Macromedia’s Dreamweaver, respectively. Though the programs’ development will cease, Adobe intends to continue to support the products, and back in April the company released a Freehand to Illustrator migration guide (PDF).
