Flash: 99% Bad! (What tha ***!)

I agree with Ahmed.

I don’t think people who are going to have alot of content and information that has to be updated daily are going to use a full flash site. The most common users of full/almost full Flash sites are bands and designers. They usually only need to update the site on a weekly/monthly basis. When was the last time you saw a news website that was 100% flash? Yeah, exactly. It might have a Flash header or main menu but the majority is HTML or PHP.

With splash pages, I used to like them, and in the case of Bily Bussey of somewhere with a couple of options to choose from I still do, but I’ve decided not to use one on my site unless I make a html version.

Alot of what Jakob Nielsen says is true but not of the majority of sites utilizing Flash. Also the ability to make great looking designs which aren’t possible in HTML is very good for designers. No-one’s going to hire you to design their site if yours looks like crap.
