YouTube’s position on Flash and HTML5

Flash, HTML5, YouTube

Hi folks, so if you have been following the hoopla, YouTube is the latest to weigh in on the Flash vs HTML5 debate!

They recently announced that even though they acknowledge that HTML5 is a step in the right direction, Flash is still continue to be there.

Now here is the interesting thing, Google owns YouTube and asĀ  you know runs the Android platform. So does this announcement really surprise any of us? Not me. I have to agree with YouTube – Flash is quite entrenched and isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

I still think Apple should change it’s policy and just allow it’s use already. I guess time will tell who wins that war.
