Hey David,

Just curious, but who are you, and how do you have seemingly hours and hours each day to tout Totally Hip Software online? What do you hope to achieve?

After spending some time with eye4u and then Smallhands.com I came to these conclusions which are important to point out:

1) the eye4u site is very good. It is flashy but it doesn't change at all. It is therefore static or always the same and can get boring after a few passes through it.

2) Even though the smallhands.com site isn't as flashy looking as eye4u, (which it could be with if one wanted) it is dynamic and changes with each user because it has some logic built into it because of the 120 or so commands accessible in LiveStage's QScript scripting language.

Click the small in the title and it moves to the new position. Move the dots around to play interactive music that the user decides. And many more interesting things. It was done in a few days by one person and provides audio and visual feedback to the user that interacts with it in different ways. If I want to watch a movie, I watch TV.

The eye4u stuff only works the same way every time.

I prefer the interactive and dynamic approach, but then again this is just my preference.

Questions for u?

Can Flash do the Small Hands title?
Can Flash allow the user to create music while moving things around?
