    Nothing really new there, and a lot of it depends on the coding ;)

    What do you mean by nothing really new? It is new. They have only just written the algorithm to do it.

    Basically Flash without the use of JavaScript will be treated as an Asset now..

    It's actually a good step taken by Google... :)

    I Have already posted on the other post here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=912143

    That's really old old news, back on 2006 Google started to index Flash based sites with the SWF filetype...
    But suddenly Adobe released a new edition of SDK for the search engines and Google just started by implement the new features...
    how ever since Macromedia Flash in Version 7.0 there was the option for both the designers and developers of Flash to add, edit
    and delete the Document information like: Title and Descriptions !!!
