My prediction: Flash will die within 5 years. - Page 2 - GoFuckYourself.com

You make such a bold statement, and...

1. Give really poor, unimpressive examples of what will supposedly replace flash.

2. You seemingly have no idea of what Flash really does, if you compare it to some crappy interactive 3d. Apples and oranges.

3. You don't have to be a programmer to use Flash, although it does help. Most artists can use it easily.

sysk, i support your prediction, but most likely it will be html6 that kills flash not html5.

I understand many here are not able to vision this as flash seems to be able to do so much/everything at the moment, but the reason this will happen is:

1. Flash is proprietary and closed source, while javascript is open source, and open source evolution always beats closed source.

2. Flash is a plugin while html/javascript engines are natively built into browsers, so it will a LOT faster.

gotta love everyones argument that flash won't go away because they use it on their sites, or they are flash devs.
