No more Flash display ads through the Google Display Network

Google display ads go 100% HTML5

Finally. It's but one more step in the process of ridding the world of the scourge that is Flash, but it's welcome progress. Now we need to see the end of Flash video ads.

At some point it served a purpose, but for quite a while now Flash has been one of the worst things in all of God's Creation. For the longest time, the only issues I ever had with my desktop (e.g. temporarily slow performance, seeming to freeze up) could be traced back to an open window running Flash. I finally got smart and turned its permission off by default so that any site that wanted to use it had to ask.
