Sometimes in this blog I've made disparaging remarks about HomeSite, but that's not because I disliked it. Kudos to Macromedia and Adobe for keeping it around, despite the fact that it competed with some of their other products. Several other developers took over after I left, but to the best of my knowledge nobody has touched it for several years, so the fact that it was still being sold until now is a nice testament to how useful people found it. It's been almost 15 years since I created HomeSite, and I stopped working on it in 1998 when I left Allaire Corporation. I was surprised to hear this, but not because I thought it was premature – truth is, I was surprised HomeSite hadn't been discontinued a long time ago. Last night I found out that HomeSite has been discontinued.
