Flash has impeded my progress. You're right, all-Flash sites suck. Flash breaks the principle of hypertext. Flash is only used for animated ads. I don't have to wait for a flash ad to load. I don't see that Flash does that HTML can't do. Even over my broadband connection the programs don't load especially fast. I'd hate to have to look at ads. I don't see that I would want to use this kind of system. Flash just takes way too long to find the "Skip Intro" button! Flash is only good for games and ads. I don't see that Flash does that HTML can't do. Flash just takes way too long to load. I don't see why anyone would want to use this kind of system. Flash breaks the principles of the World Wide Web set for hypertext navigation accross documents. Flash is a proprietary technology. You can't redistribute the Flash player. The Flash player. The Flash player. The Flash interface is horrible.
