What I mean is it a good thing or bad? Since in order for people to view your site they have to ahve something install.

Do you think you would be better of with out it even though it does look neat?

If you promote your business or you have some gaming portal then flash is maybe good idea, but I would never use flash on sites you want to rank good in SE and you are making revenue. There are ways to overcome flash and seo problems but it is too much work for me. I rather spend time on making content than on making flash and then figuring out where to put the same links( if you have flash menu ) for page not to look spam ...

Is it a problem? Yes. But this isn't exactly because Flash is poorly designed. This is largely due to the fact that search engines aren't capable of accommodating new technologies.

Google fails to make inroads in South Korea

SEOUL — Google (GOOG)has seeped into many aspects of online life across the globe, but the Internet search engine has failed so far to make any notable inroads in one of the world's most-wired countries: South Korea.

Users here are some of the most Internet-savvy in the world, with millions of people running their own blogs and taking advantage of omnipresent broadband hookups and Wi-Fi hotspots.

South Koreans would seem like natural Google users, but the leading search engine is merely a bit player.

Google Not Tops In South Korea

Google fails to make inroads in South Korea from the Associated Press is a interesting look at how there's at least one country where Google is not tops or a major player: South Korea. Instead, the human-based Naver service remains far-and-away the most popular.

It's the one exception I know of where a question-answering model has succeeded and thrived, compared to those run by Google and Yahoo. The relatively small slice of the web in Korean, along with apparently poor automated search technology initially, has allowed Naver to succeed.

South Korea is the most wired country, by the way.
