pretty straight forward and sensible, bar myth 18.

Praising flash is dangerous, ignoring all of its security flaws and the fact it's a cpu hogging, battery draining security risk. the fact it's easy to get up and running means little when it can actually hurt your users.

unless it's not as evil anymore? can anyone help me out here, did flash become secure while i wasn't paying attention?

The post seems out of date. Even in the post, the paragraph right before the section on "fun facts" emphasizes lack of mobile platform support.

Edit: Humorously, they address this with the Myth #0 reminder :-)

yeah that made me think the guy who made the list is taking the list :p just that some of the points he made are in the UX book. it's very similar definition of what UX design is since it's about improving user experience, rather than streamlining user productivity.

but that #0... cheeky.
