 Adobe announced the new 2018 edition of Creative Cloud at the Adobe MAX conference in mid October. There are feature updates to the flagship applications including Photoshop CC, InDesign CC, Illustrator CC and Premiere Pro CC, and ongoing expansion of the Adobe Stock service. There are also four brand new major applications:
- Adobe XD CC
for experience design - Adobe Dimension CC
for 2D to 3D compositing - Character Animator CC
for 2D animation - Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC
an all-new cloud-based photography service
Creative Cloud apps are still subscription only of course. And to keep us on our toes the new apps drop any reference to the year in their names and become simply e.g. "Photoshop CC". Precursor has already added the new 2018 CC apps to our Managed Software Center and is ready to provide them to licensed customers when they are ready.

 In case you were wondering, yes! I stayed up until 2 am on October 27th to order my new iPhone X. It is a long and shameful history of me staying up all night for Apple that goes all the way back to System 7 in 1991 when I had to stay up all night to download a set of floppy disk images over a 24 baud modem! (Don't tell anyone!) Even though I managed to get in to the AppleStore at 2:12 am the wait time for delivery was already pushed to Mid-Late November. So some time in the next 3-4 weeks you can start pestering me for a look at the famous iPHone X notch!
