“Flash Is Great.” — Anonymous Flash Developer

"What you already knew about latest-controversial-topic" -- TechCrunch

Come on, now. People are going to defend what they use. You can find just as many iPhone fanbois as you can Android fanbois. You can find just as many Flash fanbois as you can HTML5 fanbois. (Well, almost. But then Flash has been around much longer and is pretty thoroughly cross-platform. HTML5, at least with websockets, is only supported on half the browsers at this point and much less if you count old browser versions. Using HTML5 web sockets can do some pretty spiffy things but at this point you're cutting off a big percentage of possible users to take the leap into it)

I don't see any TechCrunch fanbois though. Hmmm. Yeah a lot of times they are the first to break a story. I'm not saying TechCrunch is valueless, by any stretch. But lately the percentage of articles that linkbait the latest controversy without providing much if any added value/information seems to be increasing. That's disappointing.
