It looked like that a year ago or so. But now with the coming release of flash 11 and flex 3 it will be changed again. Flash will be able to interact with graphic cards way more faster than now and applications that will be built on it will amaze people. Just read and watch some movies from this page - http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplatform/20 ... air-3.html

And don't underestimate other ares (besides web) where flash can be used. It is very popular there. The only hard thing for flash to conquer will be mobile market. HTML5 has already take that niche. That is why Adobe switches to HTML5 as well. for mobile market. But they will fight over other areas till the end.

Well, I still predict HTML5 will largely replace flash for most applications - if there are some specific niche applications that require flash it might survive on that, but HTML5 is looking like it will be more than capable of doing everything flash is.

Besides, flash is a proprietary platform, while HTML5 is totally open-source. That's a huge advantage for HTML5. Small, independent developers, who are largely responsible for the innovation on any new platform, are much more likely to choose the open format, and thus it's popularity will increase.

And in the future, the mobile market will more and more be merged with the regular internet. With phones dropping flash support, while supporting HTML5, a lot of developers will be likely to just skip flash alltogether.

We've heard "the big one is coming" and "oh, it will be big" posts, can we go ahead and get the "i told you it would be big" posts out of the way so this thread doesn't stay alive for weeks past its relevance (as is currently the case).

But, but, but... It's big, I promise.

I think it's referring to the hype

Gillipig · Post by **Gillipig** » Sat Oct 15, 2011 11:13 am

The big one better be big because the hype around it is pretty big. I have something I'm hoping for will be done and it would indeed be big but I don't want to jinx it by saying it.

This 'big one' had better not be game 10 million, because I think we all know that is coming anyway..

Don't worry, it is just coincidental that 200 maps occurred at the same time!

Th real big one is the next Off Topics Name Change, which will be happening soon. Plus a webmaster update.
