Making Flash Searchable
The announcement by Adobe in the first week of July 2008 has come as a huge relief for many web developers and advertisers! Adobe has changed the world of web designing forever by announcing that it will provide sites such as Yahoo! and Google new software to make Flash searchable. Up until now, Flash content was invisible to current search technologies due to the fact that it was buried inside Adobe’s SWF Flash file format. So by rolling out this new software, Adobe makes it possible for search engines like Google and Yahoo! to crawl as well as index the content.
