    Do you really need a *Flash* developer? Flash is, and always has been, a buggy rehashing of its talented older sibling Director. It has a very poor development interface and everything about it is a dirty hack. Even if you open-source ActionScript and code it elsewhere it's still part of that ugly Flash mind hive.

    Now, have you seen what JavaScript can do in 2009? It's not the little misunderstood pretend "Java" language that it was 10 years ago. Sure, use Flash for your little video bits or whatever . . . but Flash for a full website? Gross. Heard of HTML 5 by any chance? Can't wait for that to be king.
