[osflash] Why Flash?

[John Grden]

Yeah, I tend to agree with Keith about 90% here.  I wouldnt call it
horrible, but more "klunky" ;)

The concept/idea is very very solid and I think would run like wild fire if
done right.  The ability to have it SO customized is what I like about it
over MySpace and other sites.  The mods Idea is great too.  But the team has
been hard to get ahold of, and it took forever to become aproved to create
mods.  So with that feeling of disconnection (no body is home), I kinda
forgot about it.

It screams FLex2/as3 imho.
