Quote "Generally speaking, we find it hard to understand why groundbreaking companies, not just MTV, revert to older technologies in the face of Web 2.0."Are they talking about going from Flash to HTML? Isn't this what Fi just did with it's own site and Kontain.

The current MTV.com site is pretty uninspiring stuff, looks very much like any number of wordpress magazine templates.
I guess it reflects a lot of current designs out there but you'd probably expect better. Didn't they drop the flash site because basically it was a clusterfuck of un-useable design-o-wank that didn't work very well?

I think MTV designed it internally and Dan Cederholm did the HTML/CSS: http://simplebits.com/work/mtv/

it was only online for a few months before it was taken down.

"Isn't this what Fi just did with it's own site"
Yup. Flash just isn't all that feasible for a large scale content-based site.
Plus they (FI) had a blog separate from their site which was in Flash, and I don't see that anymore.

Hypocritical, Kontain was made in Flash until recently if I remember right... and it was a piece of shit too because a blog written in Flash is the stupidest fucking idea ever (I'm looking at you Adobe XD)
- that's what I was thinking, they have done a total backflipimnotaplumber
- sure you can change your mind, be interesting to see how they would tackle mtv.com now if given another shotimnotaplumber
