Flashy.

Flashy.

Michael Pick has an interesting write up about the state of Flash on the web today.

bq(http://www.mikepick.com/news/archives/000097.html). I have done the full-Flash treatment for sites in the past myself, but I believe the time for that has passed, and that Flash is now better suited as another element, like an image or a block of text. A nice example of that strategy is Todd Dominey’s Senior PGA Championship site - the work behind it is detailed here. Here the Flash is unobtrusive and neatly fitted into standard HTML content. The menus are XML-driven, which allows for easy updating, and the text is sharp and easy to read. The animation is a set of simple fades which are unobtrusive and CPU-light.

He does however forget to mention Homestar Runner.
