The intro sucked: very tired. The only thing cool about this video is that Flash is a cool application.

Come on, its the next "All Your Base," don't you think? Sorry, I was just kidding...

Flash is not a cool application. The frame-based architecture sucks. And you can't copy text. Or navigate with your browser buttons.

Flash drives me nuts.

1) The intro was slow.
2) Flash is good? Flash is bad? Flash is.
3) The song was quite a giggle.

Flash is cool in the sense that it allows color and movement and animation through a modem. Feel free to mention better competing technologies: I'm not aware...

But clearly, on second viewing, this thing sucks. It is about as après-garde as it gets.
