A Good Flash Site and a Not So Good One




http://www.volkswagen.co.uk/technology/rollercoaster

I found that this is a pretty good flash website that gives the user some information about Volkswagen's engine technology. The user is given a roller coaster ride through the many details about Volkswagen's engines. The animation itself gives you a sense of speed with not only a roller coaster track, but also an environment with objects to pass by such as trees. Details about the engines are viewed through robotic arms holding futuristic screens.

This is a flash website that doesn't look bad at first glance, but to a first time user the navigation will seem very confusing. It took me awhile to realize that the navigation is done through the clicking of the eggs at the bottom center of the page and not the word "navigation" far left of it. You only get to see what page you are about to navigate to after highlighting one of the eggs and not many first time users will notice that.
