It doesn't have to take over the web to be useful.
We're using it quite a bit for business purpose - for displaying information
and showing dynamically-generated info. While I like to think that Fig Leaf
is a "cool development shop site", we're really not. We build business
applications, and we focus squarely on return-on-investment. To the extent
that Flash helps us with this, we'll use it.
Take a look at this, and tell me Flash has no place in business apps:
