Well I wanted to test this out for myself...
Went to Macromedia.com. A button called "Gallery", that sounds like a
logical place for site of the day. There it was. How difficult was that?
Doesn't feature one specific type of tool or genera. Just on that page alone
they are showing internet shopping, Disney, CNN, and Ginne Mae not to
mention the case studies. Sorry, but, where's the beef?
