    I remember back in the days, Flash solved all cross browser issues. It's 2011 now. The browser can now do with HTML5 that which Flash was only able to simulate back in the days. And its still great for simulating work that is better done in other languages. As much as I would love to depend on plug-in technology, it's simply limited. It lacks the performance and strength that other programming languages provide.

    When HTML5 comes to age in a year or so, it will not have to endure what Flash had to and would be capable of much more. Organizing styles, handling large amounts of data, being on top of major advances in technology including mobile has never been Flash's advantage.

    • How is that? Flash STILL outperforms JS and HTML5. I don't know what you base this opinion on?Boz
    • sorry mate but you are talking bollocks... HTML 5 will not come of age in a yearfadein11

    • People are already making big dents with HTML5. At the rate of progression, there won't be any need to simulate anymoreomg
    • Have you tried ANIMATING in CSS/jQuery/whatever the way you can in Flash?CyBrainX
