Microsoft Liquid Motion
Appearance
Microsoft Liquid Motion was a product from Microsoft to create Java animations. It was based on technology acquired from Dimension-X.[1] A beta was released in 1998,[2] and version 1.0 was released soon thereafter to compete with Macromedia Flash. The product was eventually discontinued by Microsoft in 2000 due to lack of popularity.[3][4] Since Liquid Motion created Java-based animations, they were cross-platform and browser-independent.
