I was wandering about on the net, looking for a way to simulate nature in flash. I have no idea how or what, but i stumbled on a site which contained an article written back in 2002. It is talking about SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) which, according to the author, should be the next thing after Flash…. how wrong can people be!

SVG should soon be widespread, and its non-proprietary nature will help to hasten the progress. Flash will continue to be the dominant standard for quite some time because of its large client base. However, SVG is rising quickly. The distribution of the SVG plug-in via browser manufacturers will quickly increase the installed user base, just as it did for Flash. Future versions of various browsers will include SVG viewers as standard, and some already do. The Internet Explorer distribution that includes Acrobat also includes the SVG Viewer.
