On July 1, 2008, Adobe announced steps to solve non-indexing of Flash based content by search engines by providing Google and Yahoo! with software that will make indexing and searching of Flash based pages and content possible.

Moreover, Google has announced that it has launched a "Flash indexing algorithm", which will result in better search results, so far as Flash based content is concerned.

This double treat is great news for all those Flash loving designers who always have had great ideas around Flash, but were feeling restricted because of search engine related problems.

Time to celebrate guys, Yippeeee :D

It should help Flash movies get indexed for sure but how is it going to allow direct linking to individual scenes within a movie?

Hi web Guru,
Read article http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/ar...rchability.html
Google "flash indexing algo" is not yet matured as it is just launched.
I will suggest is, if you have any flash related page just check the Google Cached SnapShot of the page, Under that view cached text, there you will fine which links and contents Google have indexed.
From this you can have idea what actually Google is indexing.

Regarding your query
"how is it going to allow direct linking to individual scenes within a movie"
I think you will find answer for this as well.
If not let know know the details and url, i will try to provide you response.
:D
