Flashiest flash pages. Know any?

Make that "Flash done stupid" and your post is correct!

To see what Flash was REALLY made for: http://www.becominghuman.org and take the documentary. It'll keep you busy for at least 90 minutes. I have no idea what they paid for this - but it truly is a work of art: utilising flash for the purpose for which it is intended - displaying content which can NOT be displayed using HTML alone: using multiple layers, pulling through static images to simulate animation, sounds, voices, fading, 3D animations and non-linear navigation, allowing you to explore your environment without having to follow a set story line.

In 99% of cases flash is bad and should NOT be used: http://www.useit.com/alertbox/20001029.html

If the virtual inventor of the web says it: believe it.

Can't forget this one. It has been around as long as I have known about flash.

Wow! Yes very cool. Very flashy. Verry good find. I've been showing this off to people.

So, according to Mobius, a site dedicated to displaying a series of Flash animations should not be using Flash.

That's right; you heard it here, folks.

Looks like it is shockwave, not flash.

Oh, my bad. You're right.

I hadn't looked at that for over a year, so I forgot. Just pulled it up quickly out of my bookmarks.

Yeah, one problem is they never released a shockwave plugin for linux. Oh well.

aight..Money! made me want to contribute and hook you guys up instead of just smirk..So here it is..

A little background on 2advanced.com

Started by a guy named Eric Jordan. Oddly enough his last name fits..Because..at the time when he started 2advanced he was the \"Michael Jordan\" of flash..Meaning..he was it..the top..that was some years ago and ALOT of people have come into their own. Now..Something else 2advanced is kinda \"famous\" for. As other developers became awesome at flash..he grabbed some of the best to come work for him and his team. So...they rock...(side note...they made the GGL)

this dude worked with him..and he super rules.

Ninjai.com

a falsh site with a flash animation series. If you relly want to see what can be done with flash.. THIS is the site.

Nielsen is pretty much right on the money, though (well, he should be, considering he's one of the most well-known names in the usability field anyway); Flash is more often than not simply an impediment.

Something he doesn't mention is that Flash files are generally pretty big; so if you're going to use them, they'd better be worth it.

For such reasons few serious sites are made using the technology... it's mostly used to be flashy and cool, rather than to simply work effectively.
