3000+ reasons why Flash isn’t going anywhere soon
The FWA is almost 10 years old (established in May 2000) and they started their 10th anniversary celebrations early by launching a brand new site (created by Belgian based Flash rockstars Group94). The FWA is one of the few sites I visit daily and a great inspirational resource. Every day they award the best site with their acclaimed and much wanted “Site of the Day” award. Winners proudly add the yellow ribbon to their site to show that they won.
The FWA has awarded over 3000 sites in the last 10 years… Less than 10 of those use a technology other than Flash. So… If you’re looking for great examples of why Flash isn’t going anywhere soon, The FWA is a good place to start! In just about every thinkable category from games to architecture to educational to fashion and more you can find inspiring examples that showcase the power of the Flash Platform.
If you have any doubts that Flash doesn’t have a future, you should just look at some of the amazing sites and apps showcased on The FWA!
Here are some of my favorite recent FWA winners:
Flash on!
Midsummer giveaway winners
2 weeks ago, I opened up the “Future of Flash Midsummer Giveaway”. I asked you guys to look in to your crystal balls and tell us where you see the Flash Platform in 5, 10 or even 20 years from now. I must say that some of you have a very vivid imagination ;-)
To be totally fair, I asked my colleagues Enrique Duvos and Andrew Shorten to pick the winners. Congrats!

And you know what… I’m in a good mood today so I’m going to send a cool T-shirt and Flex book to everyone who submitted an entry! ;-)
All winners will receive an email from me.
And the winners are…
As you probably know by now, Flash On The Beach is in just 1 week time and is completely sold out. Luckily we were able to get a hold of the last tickets and asked you to be creative with the “beach” theme and the AIR, Flash, Flex, ColdFusion, Adobe logos. Here are the winners who all get a full conference pass to Flash On The Beach in Brighton. I’m sure you’ll agree that these clearly are winners. Congrats to all of them and see you in Brighton!
