"Yesterday, Fi (Fantasy Interactive) sent out alpha invitations to their new product, Kontain. This is one product I’ve signed up and (not very) patiently waited for its launch, as it should be pretty revolutionary in terms of user-friendliness. Basically, it’s the first Flash-based blogging platform open to world wide free public access." - Alex Cristache
Who needs a Flash-based blogging platform? It's inaccessible. Each page weighs at least 400Kbytes. Maybe someone would use Flash-based blogging tools, but the reader also needs Flash to view even your text and image content. I don't get it. Isn't this why we have standards like JavaScript? - Benjamin Doherty
Benjamin, the Flash Player is installed on the majority of computers these days. That's not the real problem. Also, no matter how much we complain about it, the dial-up era is gone. 400Kb per page? We should analyze standard blogging platforms and see much their pages weight, with tons of widgets & slow loading gadgets using external APIs. This is a great product for those that find "drag and drop" type of actions easier. It would be a whole lot easier to explain Kontain to my father rather than WP. - Alex Cristache
