That's the way I understood the articles I was reading as well. I seems |
| 17 |
HTML5 is fairly powerful and rich in features. Read that as, you can |
| 18 |
watch videos, show gif, jpegs and such and have other animated thingys. |

I would also add, I bet it is going to be more secure too. From what I |
| 21 |
have read on this list and the notices I get from the US Government |
| 22 |
alerts, Adobe Flash is about the most insecure thing there is. The only |
| 23 |
thing that may beat it is windoze 95. ROFL |

I read about Youtube and it's testing. I have not tried it on a |
| 26 |
permanent basis but I did do a one session test a while back. I |
| 27 |
couldn't SEE any difference. I think that is a good thing myself. I'm |
| 28 |
not sure what all changes there was tho. It may not make enough of a |
| 29 |
difference for me to notice, yet. |

Here's to hoping HTML5 gets rid of flash, sooner the better. |
