    It’s horses for courses. There are still a lot of things that Flash is perfect for, like big interactive sites with video, 3D etc for which it’s perfect.

    Conversely there are a lot of things happening with Javascript and HTML 5 that are replacing things we might have done in Flash a year ago, or even just a few months ago. This is awesome when you think about mobile for example, the canvas element in Safari for iphone is very smooth.

    It’s just a case of picking the right technology for your application. I think a lot of the hate is a bit unjustified. Although I’m going to agree that the Flash authoring tool, especially CS4, is awful.
