If youtube, slideshare, podcast widgets had not existed, flash would been passe. Last time I used flash was when I was experimenting with font embedding with sifr and swfupload, even there it was more to JS than flash. A decade back embedding java applets was the norm, flash usage is at same level for most sites now. We would get past it in mainstream sites in next 2 years
