    @nb "I think it's because Flash isn't just beautiful sites. It's a whole lot of bullshit, with the occasional good site."

    So everything based in HTML/JS/CSS isn't bullshit? Sorry, no. The world is full of bullshit, with the occasional good thing. That's not Flash, that's the general human experience.

    And if you think you are going to see animated advertising disappear, just because flash is 'dead', you really shouldn't hold your breath - you're going to get the same tired, animated advertising delivered in a whole new exciting way - HTML & CSS..

    Long live the internet!

    • Exactly, people blame the technology for what it's being used for. That's the bullshit.CyBrainX
    • + gazillion. Ad agencies aren't going to stop making online ads. Online advertising makes more money than sites.fyoucher1
    • A lot more.fyoucher1
    • Sure, but it will be far more difficult for a hack amateur to crash my browser. Currently, they can crash simply by not trying.nb
    • trying.nb
    • Also, it's not the animation in advertising that I mind. It's when the ad uses up so much of my system that bothers me.nb
    • Your second paragraph is correct, though. There will be plenty of shit sites, but they won't slow me down. Hopefully.nb
    • nb - your browser set up must be crap if a flash ad crashes it - never had that problemfadein11
