Enough with the flash spam.

We needed another gratuitous product pitch? As the worthless Legs McNeil once said: please kill me.

How should MeFites discriminate from one product pitch and any other, considering most art sites also sell their work?

BTW, you're dead.

dorian's first comment almost makes it worthwhile.

and, slightly off topic, but all the pepsi blue jokes actually lead me to buy the damn thing. my review: not as bad as the matrix powerade but it wasn't good either. 2 sips and i threw it out.

am i the only one that did this?

to be honest, my intention was less to elucidate than simply to mock flash -- after random attempts over many months, much cursing and, naturally, requisite amounts of guinness, I have not once gotten either of those packages to behave as a proper plugin for phoenix. I still give 'em a try every few weeks, but eh no luck.

perhaps more useful is duckstab's comment...I've been enjoying click-to-play for a while now -- it's lovely, all the fun of mefi fridays with none of the everyday annoyance.
