I’m thrilled to see people moving away from Flash and into tools like Ajax – and some of the tricks currently being used don’t appear to be as complex as they used to be.  I’m still trying to figure out how much of this could have been done before and just wasn’t because we didn’t see the possibilities in JavaScript.

My issue is now I have to be wary of sites using Ajax for fancy image animations, since I’ve routinely turned off gif animations and killed flash in all my browsers.  Guess I’ll have to find a kill-javascript-button Firefox extension…
