FLASH: FLASH 99% BAD

[Chris Lucania]

Personally, I can't stand this guy views...


but I thought everyone might get a charge from a

FLASH 99% BAD

Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox for October 29 is now online at:

Although multimedia has its role on the Web, current Flash 

technology tends to discourage usability for three reasons: 

it makes bad design more likely, it breaks with the Web's 

fundamental interaction style, and it consumes resources that 

would be better spent enhancing a site's core value.
