Flash is not dead. It&#x27;s the ONLY plugin left that works in all desktop browsers, and works on Mobile phone. Facebook supports it, more and more who have started in HTML5 have lived to regret the day. For many years I was a C++ snob who totally dismissed Flash, but now I really enjoy actionscript<p>I am working with a client who is write a phone app in Flash because of the low level cross platform abilities and it is awesome! It also lets me build web based admin tools for the backend really quickly. Only negative thing I can say about it is the garbage collection is slow...
