Wix.com helps you create a flash-based website for free
Posted by Ingrid Riley on October 23rd, 2007
Israel- Someone pinch me. Now you know there has been a lot of design tools that promises “no need to have programming skills” but they all have some shortcoming-most glaring three are 1. you’ll see all sorts of ads on your websites and that’s just not cute; 2. you’ll be asked to pay some monthly fee; and 3 you’ll have some long domain that made you wonder why did I bother to sign up.
Well Israel-based, yeah you read that right, Israel-based Wix.com have thrown their hat into the ring. They are in private beta(sign up and hope they send you an invite) but claimes to allow uers that ability to create flash-based websites without programming skills and publish those sites anywhere on the web. The output can also be widgetized and published on social networks.
We signed up to be selected to test drive this baby, so when (we are projecting major confidence here) we get our invite and do the test drive, we’ll post our review.

To be honest, I was never a big fan of flash. It’s always been a nuisance, especially to those running linux like myself. Actually, I pretty much hate everything associated with Adobe.
Flash looks cool and this is a great new tool on the horizon. The only trouble is, other similar ‘hot’ free Flash products are known to be silent conduits for adware and spyware – case in point lovemyflash.com that pops out cool MySpace layouts etc. for free. If you in the business of deploying quick and easy sites, adware and other tracking script, then these are great tools; but there is so much more to online marketing than that.
Nothing wrong with this, at all, people should get it more.
Keep up the good work, another informative post.
