Flash

When Flash was in its prime years it was the best thing out in the world. Flash made it possible to use web-based video, animations, and interactivity between users and the computer. It guaranteed that the content would look good and behave the same way for anyone who loaded it, regardless of the browser or computer.

IPhone

The significance of the IPhone being created is it allowed newer programs to be created. Steve Jobs wrote that Flash was intensive, and it plugin was overly proprietary. The IPhone allowed HTML5, CSS, and Javascript to be created which were all open standards. Even though Flash is becoming outdated, it is still the best platform for youtube's video distribution requirements. 

Importance

In 2015 Adobe created a new software called Edge Animate that allowed a new way to create CSS content. They also created the HTML5 video player. One of the only companies left still using Flash a lot if Facebook. 

Google

Google has decided that on their Chrome browser they are blocking Flash unless the user goes into the settings and allows it, they will not be allowed to view Flash websites and products. For all of the Flash based websites and products that are out today, they are either redoing their products to match the modern ideas. All of the old versions are being stored on oldweb.today website.
