Silverlight, JavaFX, Google, Firefox, et al. are attempting to catch up with the Flash Platform in the Rich Internet Applications space. But there is one feature that these pretenders don’t have, and will likely never have: the creativity of the Flash community.
I don’t know anything about the communities that have grown up around these other platforms but I just don’t see them having the equivalent wackiness that we have. I think it’s because there are so many designer types that grew up with Flash. Maybe it won’t always be this way. But for now, we have Phillip Kerman. So what if they have multi-threading. What good is it going to do them without our creativity?
