About 99% of the time, the presence of Flash on a website constitutes a usability disease. Although there are rare occurrences of good Flash design (it even adds value on occasion), the use of Flash typically lowers usability. In most cases, we would be better off if these multimedia objects were removed.

PS. Thanks to Jason for the idea.
Dude right on...
I would like to get a bunch of programers together to write a plugin that actually kills, or freezes the images within the first few frames of Flash. A Flash disabler.
I want my phone to connect to the internet, and can you imagine what happens when it attempts to render Flash.
Do you know of any groups out there?
Cheers
Ant
