Prolly going to get shot down for this - but I don't see the point of using Flash and Ajax together - flash can do everything Ajax can and more, so if you're going to use flash....then 'use' flash.

Where does Flash fit in with the Ajax paradigm? As a competitor, or as an integrated part. The answer seems to be both, but I'm interested in how working developers see it.

No contest. Flex is cross platform.

Sure it will ;) "microsoft cross platform" is an oxymoron. Everything they've done that has been across multiple platforms has exhibited differing designs throughout. What is on platform A is not what is on platform B. In any regard, avalon is a longhorn tech in the same way quartz is an osx tech. Anything being cross platform in that regard is going to be a compromised solution.

In any case, MS is looking at having to propagate a new plugin in a flash friendly market. In the most basic of terms, i'd say flash has a head start ms is going to have a terrible time trying to follow, no matter how clever their forms look.

But what do i know. OT anyway :)
