Note: this is a general response to this thread, not to anyone in 
particular.

I upload it to youtube because it works. It's permanent. People can 
comment it. People can rate it. I can see how many people see it. And I 
can add a title and a description to it, plus it's linked with my 
profile and my other videos.

And I don't think YouTube sucks. I don't have problems with Flash or 
Javascript either.

Come on, it's not 1990 anymore. "web pages were designed to show texts 
and links".

"No one can be bothered with installing Flash and having a JavaScript 
enabled browser". Why not? It takes less than a minute to install Flash. 
  It takes *not unchecking* a checkbox to get Javascript working in most 
browsers. What's the big deal everyone have with Javascript?

(I recall someone said, about Javascript, that people use 
"javascript:openWindow" instead of a link. I think that's bad in some 
cases. But what else is bad with Javascript?)
