On Tuesday, July 01, 2008, Adobe announced that Google and Yahoo are adding search capabilities that will enable users to look inside the content of files encoded in Adobe’s Flash file format – SWF.

Clearly this is helpful for the pages inside Flash-based sites, which will be get indexed in search sites such as Google and Yahoo! Adobe has worked with these Search Engine Giants to make sure that these SE can now look inside the code having flash work including content, text, hyperlinks, audio and video.
The end users will be benefited with quality of search results now.
