- stroboskop 14y agoNot a fan of Flash either, but the Internet is not the Web. You say "The Internet works better" without formats like Flash. To my knowledge the Internet does not discriminate between proprietary and non-proprietary data fromats of its content whereas the basic functions of the Web do (URLs, hyperlinks,...).
- ptaipale 14y agoYes, but the Web is in the Internet. What's in flash in Web is in flash in Internet, and is often annoying.
- luckystarr 14y agoThe Web is an application running on the Internet. Flash is a plugin of the Web (via the browser).
- ante_annum 14y agoThe content does exist in a URL. That url just happens to point to a flash file. I think what you're meaning to say is "I like it when content exists in resources with URLs an Content-Type: text/plain;charset=utf8"
- RyanMcGreal 14y agoCan you link directly to the "fast or slow" page? How about the "one week later" page under Examples?
- ante_annum 14y agoNo, because they aren't pages. Can you link to page 3 of a pdf?
