I wasn't very about writing this either, because I'm in general not a big fan of browser plugins and I do like standards. However we are at a point where the web start to fragment and it's worth sharing my opinion.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eYears ago the abilities of HTML in the different browsers was very limited and Flash leveraged this very well by provided richer user experiences, more dynamic pages and most important video. Today many of the dynamic user experiences can also be done with Javascript and AJAX, however video is still a challenge. Flash is more and more used for advertisements and is not really adding to the core web functionality anymore.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eA few years ago Microsoft started with SilverLight competing with Flash. Microsoft leverages the huge number of .NET developers that now can easily apply their skills on the dynamic web. This combined with the improved abilities to create line of business applications is now bringing Windows to the web. Looking at Microsofts own web applications it's all about copying Windows to the web. I'm not sure if desktop applications should use the same patterns as web applications, but that is a nice topic for an other article.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eHTML 5 the next version of HTML does provide a nice new standard for building dynamic and media rich applications. It's still in its infancy and only a few browsers provide support, but has a clear future in providing the future application platform.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eIn short, three compelling technologies, each with different advantages, disadvantages and adoption rates. Today choosing the right technology really depends on your solution in combination with your ability to either distribute a plug-in or enforce a specific browser. It will be very difficult to make the right choice!\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eIt's all going to be even worse with the upcoming Apple iPad, the most\u0026nbsp;desirable\u0026nbsp;tablet you can imagine. It really doesn't matter how great competitive devices are going to be. Everybody wants an iPad anyway. The iPad will be a great device to give a way in competitions, as sales incentives etc... just because everybody wants to have one. However your favorite browser plugin will not work on the device!\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eJust imagine some of the following:\u003cbr /\u003e1. Your business is giving away iPads as a price, don't you want your website to work on the device?\u003cbr /\u003e2. You are in charge of deciding a new SaaS solution and your boss is proudly showing off his new iPad gadget.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eIt doesn't really matter anymore how great Flash and SilverLight are... when they are not supported on the iPad, their use will get limited. \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cdiv class\u003d\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003e\u003cimg width\u003d'1' height\u003d'1' src\u003d'https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26574843-1566917395119948553?l\u003dwww.aadjemonkeyrock.com' alt\u003d'' /\u003e\u003c/div\u003e"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.aadjemonkeyrock.com/feeds/1566917395119948553/comments/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http://www.aadjemonkeyrock.com/2010/03/html-5-flash-and-silverlight.html#comment-form","title":"2 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26574843/posts/default/1566917395119948553"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26574843/posts/default/1566917395119948553"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http://www.aadjemonkeyrock.com/2010/03/html-5-flash-and-silverlight.html","title":"HTML 5, Flash and SilverLight"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Aad 't Hart"},"uri":{"$t":"http://www.blogger.com/profile/07566387683675598847"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$extendedProperty":{"xmlns$gd":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005","name":"OpenSocialUserId","value":"12531941165923430703"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Cpsd1NUJ1D0/S51ggplrA2I/AAAAAAAAC8o/G7--Lvuxoy4/s72-c/Silverlight-Flash-HTML.jpg","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"$t":"2"},"georss$point":{"$t":"52.003958713627924 4.360971450805664"}}]}});
