Yeah and we like to be found.

Google and flash are still not best friends

Uhm: XML and therefore XHTML is a format for data exchange. Wikis are Data
provider.
The maximum functionality you need is search and edit and the design needs
to fit
to the content. I can imagine nothing in flash that could replace mediawiki
for wikipedia 
and there is a reason for it.

Unless you provide all datas in XML form and just _display_ the pages in
Flash (where, again,
i don't see any advance) to have some visual formatting that is high
performant (and i mean like total response 
time including startup, download and rendering smaller 1 second) and adds
practical value
there is no reason for having a flash wiki.

yours
Martin.

Honestly, its all in the design. To me, almost everything done with
HTML is more clunky than what is really possible.

To me, the emergence of HTML late 90's set us back 10 years in terms
of interface design. Flash and Flex2 allow for new creative 
possibilities. I dont have any specific ideas about how to design a
wiki better. But better tools almost always unleash creative
possibilites not previously considered.

Regards,
Hank
