IMHO, there's nothing more annoying that a website showing me a progression bar, indicating how much time it will get to provide the information I'm looking for... And when the progression bar ends, I have to wait until the flashy graphics and stupid presentation shows me the "go to html site"...
I use the web for working. I work in international trade and I'm all the time looking for new products, searching for information, technical specifications, etc, etc... Flash, when using sparingly, could give an elegant touch to a web site. But when abussed, it is very annoying. It makes me waist my time and my patience.... And finding a website that uses Flash apropiately, is very unusual. Most of the times, they are loaded with heavy animations (most of them boring). The more I see it, the more I like the old fashioned html style... And now with "Vista", "Avalon", and all those new buzzwords coming soon, I don't know where we are going...all I know is that we will need 1 GB of ram just to keep on seeing the same stupid animations that get on my way when I'm working... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
