On The Lack of Flash

0 comments Filed in Tumbling Tagged with Experience•Flash•Ihnatko•Internet•iPad January 30th, 2010

Months ago, I installed a browser plugin for Safari called “ClickToFlash.” It blocks all Flash content. You’ll see a placeholder image in the webpage and if you want to view the content, give it a click and it’ll load in. I have not noticed any drop in my ability to enjoy the Web. What I have noticed is that my browser is faster and more responsive, and that I can leave a couple of dozen tabs and windows up for weeks without having to force-restart my Mac.

I also use ClickToFlash and a Flash-less internet has positively improved my browsing experiences.

About

Welcome to iFranky. I am Managing Editor at Splashpress Media and resident blogger of BloggingPro. This is my personal blog, where I mainly write about my experiences in the life of a paid blogger. I make a living out of this but on these pages I will not provide you with tips how to write for traffic, how to style your entries. Instead I will share advice based on behind the scenes experience.

The views expressed on these pages are mine alone and not those of my employer.
If I say something stupid on this site... know that I hold the intellectual copyright on said stupidity. Challenge me, call me an idiot but the stupidity is MINE!

Latest Aside

The topic of trust is where I draw a line in both my personal and management philosophy. My belief is that a team built on trust and respect is vastly more productive and efficient than the one where managers are distant supervisors and co-workers at 9-to-5 people you occasionally see in meetings. You're not striving to be everyone's pal; that's not the goal. The goal is a set of relationships where there is a mutual belief in each other's the reliability, truth, ability, and strengths.
