RE: FLASH: FLASH 99% BAD

[Bradshaw, Brian]

k10k is nicer to look at. But I have to point out, it took a very long time

to appear on my screen than the other site. The cool design is not the only

element of a web site.

1) Take a look at his website for an example of cutting-edge, beautiful

design: http://useit.com


2) This from www.k10k.net:

I changed my mind, I love Flash now. Its just that I had this condition that

made my brain get stuck in 1995 all these years. But I am getting better!

I currently now working closely with John Maeda on a project called "Phallic

SWF2000" - it is all about navigating a fully animated 3D space by throwing

red dots around; as they bounce back at you of furiously fast animated

floating shapes, you catch them and sort them by color and movement, and you

go on to the next "installment". This navigation might sound very difficult

to work out, but believe me, it is easy as pie. Don't hate me. I've changed

my ways.


I think he's being sarcastic.
