Also there are so many annoying, stupid animations and tricky, useless interactive stuff (especially on company websites) that I just can't stand. It's as if they are just thinking of every possible way to make their site bloated. All thanks to Flash. I hope that even when HTML5 will be able to do those things, they won't.

And what happened to <video> tags?

Flash is almost the only thing standing between the Internet and Open Source!

which is why i installed the FlashBlock add-on in FirefoX !!

it's amazing how many ridiculous ads you can block with simply that tool...

as for flash in general , well i think that it's days are numbered and sooner or later will fade away

I use NoScript and Adblock Plus. I have a growing whitelist, though, for NoScript... not many so far, though.
