DMA455 - Flash and the Creative Industry (Week 1)

With word of html5 soon becoming the new replacement for flash, we're all left to wonder, whats going to happen to flash?  Flash has been around for a long time, and because of its capabilities and the kind of work that can be produced with it, its still widely used today.  (Take a look at the picture on the left.)  Flash is still the most widely used platform to produce work such as games, applications, and websites.  It's supported by almost every platform (except for IOS) but its possible with some tweaking.  Html5 could possibly be better than flash, but with its limited support, and underdevelopment, we've yet to see its true potential, whereas Flash has already been creating to his potential, and is supported by almost all platforms.  There's no saying that one is far more superior than the other, because we've yet to see a great support base and use for html5, so until then, Flash won't be going anywhere.
