    there's this company here in los angeles that allows filmmakers to upload their dailies to their server and manage/review them. the entire front end is web-based and done in as3. it features a quite complex interface, one that couldn't easily be done in any other client-side technology.

    this is one example of a use of flash many of you will never ever see, and there are hundreds of thousands of applications just like this. i think flash is much more prevelant that you realize. just because your daily internet browing doesn't expose *you* to any of this stuff, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

    does flash have a place with regards to video or ads? i don't think that's the case anymore. i think if/when html5 becomes the standard, it will relieve flash of a lot of the duties it's specialized in over the years - and rightly so. i think we can at least all agree on that.
