| Why flash?
Flash is evil, EEEVIL! And annoying as hell! Besides, Earthlink already had webmail, just what was wrong with the old one? Huh? I really hate Flash. It's not cool to have a site made entirely out of flash, it's annoying! /rant... -- TCPA - Treacherous Computing Kerio 2.1.5 - Best damn firewall Home licensing should be just that. |

It's not cool to have a site made entirely out of flash, it's annoying! /rant... It's all in how it was developed. 95% of Flash apps are just "all flash". However, given a good developer you can have quite a good application. Problem is that most flash developers come from strictly a graphical design background and don't take good GUI design into consideration. |

1 edit | Exactly. It's not the technology that's bad, it's the use of it. Saying all Flash is bad is like saying all digital photography is bad (as a way of arguing for film). The technology itself has nothing to do with whether the product produced with it is not good. Give me a break.
It ain't the pencil, it's how you write your name. |
