So! A lot has happened since starting this project… Flash version 10.1+ was released (on all platforms including mobile), JQuery became the industry standard and Html5 was brought to the limelight by Steve jobs who is touting it as the "future of the internet".

Firstly, to play music and movies – this is a multimedia site after all – secondly, to suck in RSS feeds and display them visually one at a time, and thirdly to integrate with the html and AJAX so that it can display relevant animations depending on where you are on the site.
