I completely disagree with using Flex to build a site promoting Flex.
It's an informative website where HTML fits perfectly - not an
application, neither an interactive experience which are the real use
cases for Flex. We shouldn't do the same mistakes that have been done in
the past with Flash being used for informative websites.
But if you're talking about demos and a showcase of Flex applications -
then I'm completely with you. We miss a centralized place where people
can see exactly what can be done with Flex (Flex.org was a good example,
but the showcase is quite weak, IMHO).
