    I think you are completely right.. i think WebGL will find it's place but I just don't think it will be a main choice for 3d for a long time if ever. It really depends on tools. If we see a lot of good tools in producing WebGL content it might allow non-Flash people to build some 3D interactivity.. but it's gonna be tough.

    Future of Flash? 3D games on the web, rich apps and games on mobile devices, tablets, TVs and so on. It hink It will still have usage for the websites and similar but not as much because JQuery and HTML5 and CSS and web fonts have matured enough to finally do some things that Flash was used for. And that's really great.

    As far as Silverlight goes I think that thing is dead on the web. It will be platform/technology used to develop for Windows Phone 7 and Xbox 360 apps and basically future Microsoft platforms that deal with some kind of apps or whatever but that's about it. I don't see anyone using it on the web as Microsoft themselves lifted their hands from it for the web.
