Seriously, other than YouTube, what do you need Flash for?

7 of 10 biggest sites use Flash

If you was ever in doubt that Flash has become a standard on the web, the latest survey made for Macromedia by Media Metrix should make you certain.
The survey shows that out of the 10 biggest web sites in the US, 7 use Flash content on their web sites.

The 3 sites on the top 10 list that did not use Flash content was Amazon, eBay and X10.com. (We, of course, think that every single one of these sites would have benefited from using Flash content on their pages).


For more numbers, and the TOP 50 list of sites using (or not using) Flash content, check out the web page at Macromedia.com

We all know that Flash is installed on about 98% of all browsers, but how many web pages use Flash? Surveying more than 3.5 million pages, the Opera (browser) developer center found that somewhere between 30% and 40% of all pages tested contained Flash files. The survey also features fun statistics such as AJAX usage, the least popular HTML and CSS tags and the number of pages that validate.



Myspace and Facebook also use flash
Uninstall flash on your computer and see how it goes.
