Adobe Flash has been poorly implemented into the Internet

Adobe Flash is an incredible tool, and over the past ten years the increasing number of innovations achieved with it have been astounding. Adobe claims that more than 99% of internet users have Flash installed, and with the high proportion of websites which make use of it, it's not difficult to see why.

Flash, however, in a similar manner to Adobe Acrobat, has a tendency to make me seeth with frustration - not because of its own shortcomings, but the decisions of those who use it to create applications, games and websites. Its problem is not one there is an easy solution to - and that is the lack of standards set by the aforementioned creators of .swf files.
