Even with broadband, it can be annoying to go from page to page waiting for the loading to stop. Yes, inaccessibility would be something that Macromedia needs to address. Not sure if <b>pages</b> within one Flash movie can be bookmarked. On the other hand, there are great uses for Flash on some sites; film clips come to mind. Found you in our logs, by the way, saw your links page ... and spent part of the night reading that <a href="http://www.mil-millington.com/">Things My Girlfriend and I Have Argued About</a> page AGAIN. If I've lost time, it's your fault! LOL I have to agree with you there, ILJD. Even with broadband, it can be annoying to go from page to page waiting for the loading to stop.

There are more important reasons for not creating flash-only sites - that they are usually extremely large in size, therefore slow, and they are almost always completely and utterly inaccessible. Nice to see Google taking this step though, because there are decent flash sites out there, but I hope people don't take this as an invitation to start doing more flash-only sites!
