There are some seriously savvy folks whose technical abilities are amazing but strangely they seem obsessed with putting Linux on everything… because they can. (I actually think this is a cool phenomenon.)

Similarly, Doug McCune has reverse-engineered Adobe’s new special-search-indexing Flash Player which gives Google and Yahoo’s web spiders far greater insight into SWFs (this means there’s been another big step forward in Search Engine Optimization for content in Flash! Woot!). The most amazing part of Doug’s reverse-engineering analysis is that he’s managed to communicate the entire process in just one comic-strip panel. Bravo, sir, bravo!

It’s completely worth a look even if Flash/SEO, etc. isn’t your thing.
