I Love Flash, and I Don't Care to Admit It

posted on 5 July 2011 | posted in Internet Related

There's been this waxing and waning of public opinion (or at least web developer opinion) when it comes to Flash. In the late 90s, it was the bees knees. Then it got unpopular because it was search engine unfriendly and lacked usability. Now it's made another comeback, and this time in a much more sensible way. Instead of those Flash-only sites, now we see Flash used as elements of a page - maybe a video (e.g. look at a typical youtube page), or a slideshow. That means you get the best of both worlds - the multimedia of Flash with the search engine friendliness and usability of HTML. When seeking a web development company, I like to use a search engine and enter keywords like web development derbyshire (location is important as I like to meet developers). Ask your local developers if they use Flash, and if so, how they use it.
