    the one thing i've noted is that he doesn't always say thing in absolutes. i remember thinking how absurd to never accept flash as a tool for the web. now, i'm not a fan of flash for certain circumstances, but in some cases, like narrative storytelling, it seems like a pretty good tool.

    however, I've seen nielsen say things like (and i don't have the exact quote) flash mostly sucks (to me, meaning, there are times when it's acceptable to use.

    i think it's more of a challenge to do things a bit differently, but i also feel like that's why the web is progressing. if we only went by what the masses knew how to use, we'd still be using Gopher sites.
