I'm in total agreement with mhc - too often content is too well-hidden by shiny things. Ironically, these shiny things are intended to grab the user's attention and make them want to see the content.

Plugins should never be the basis of a webpage, they should enhance it. Hence the name plugin - something you can stick into your chosen markup language, not something to replace it. Otherwise, we'd know these plugins as markup.

That said, I use neither Flash nor JavaScript. I've never been good at any kind of programming except at a very, very basic level - scripting mobs and, a long long time ago, writing games in BASIC.
