There's been a lot of buzz lately about whether or not the demise of Flash is imminent, to be replaced with elements like Canvas and video for HTML 5 and h.264 video players. A few weeks ago, I wouldn't have thought so- but things seem to be changing quickly:

I'm now running YouTube's experimental HTML 5 video player- and like it just as well as the Flash one.

I stumbled across this pretty nifty demo of a pure HTML 5 drawing program.

And this canvas experiment with lots of moving graphics and sound had me saying "I can't believe it's not Flash!™".
