After my post yesterday about iJigg, I stated that Flash was one of the best tools for audio on websites. We've already seen what Flash has done for video online, but it appears that audio is the next thing that Flash will dominate.

TechCrunch has another story today (that's two in the past two days) about MOG, a social networking site for music fans that is using Flash for embedding audio in websites.

It does seem as though audio got skipped on the web. Yes, we had some podcasts for a while, but video was quick to take over everyone's attention. Are we finally getting to the point where audio on the web will be as pervasive as video? As will Flash dominate that area as much as video?

Flash Player 8 kicked off this revolution, allowing people to display video and play audio to anyone with Flash Player, and with great codecs to boot. I think we'll see the same type of revolution in a few months thanks to Flash Player 9, Flex and Apollo. The improvements in FP 9 allow people to develop rich Internet applications that weren't even possible a year ago, with the benefit that most of the people on the Internet can use them (something that can't be said for many other technologies).

Flash Player 8 kicked off a multi-media revolution online, with video and now audio based websites. Flash Player 9 will do the same for RIAs. What application are you going to build?
