	Yes, the entire site was built in Flash 8 with a custom .Net
remoting AMF gateway someone here wrote. I started with a strict OOP
setup, but as the timeline changed and the entire scope changed I ended
up with some unorganized code. I am hoping to re-factor the code soon.
We are adding SWF support today and should have this build live sometime
next week.

	 

	Thanks,

	Steve

	Impressive Steve. What version of Flash? 8?

	We just finished version 1 of a 100% Flash-based
social-networking site. The
	site was built for a brand (dr. pepper), with teenagers in mind,
so things
	like chat have been left out on purpose (legal) for now.

	I am hoping we will go through another round or two of
development, as this
	version was rushed and we had some great ideas to allow users to
customize 
	the content more. I still have lots of refactoring that needs to
happen
	still too.
	
	Whether it will be successful is a good question. They are going
to seed
	content soon through a university contest, then they will launch
it to the 
	world via ad campaigns and printing on the bottles.
	
	Thanks,

	The other day, I was talking about social networking 
	sites with a friend, I defended Flash as the right
	solution claiming it has far more visual capabilities
	than a site operating on CSS or HTML,  His question in
	response to my Flash bias left me stumped for an 
	answer.
	
	He said, "Most successful sites are done with a mix of
	Flash and HTML such as YouTube, MySpace, etc.  What
	successful networking sites have been produced all in
	Flash, if any?"
	
	I couldn't answer my friend's question, but from a
	historical standpoint, this is a valid question and
	would be interesting to discuss.  Any answers out
	there?
	
	Thanks.
