Man I'm downloading Flex Builder 3 today! That looks sweet. I love the fact that the whole interface is under Flash control. No more browser incompatibilities.
The part that worries me is accessibility, but Adobe claims to have this handled (http://www.adobe.com/accessibility/products/flex/).
So that leaves SEO. I started listening to podcasts about this very subject (http://www.theflexshow.com/blog/index.cfm/2008/9/10/The-Flex-Show-Episode-54).
In his opinion the fact that Flash allows the text within it to be index isn't getting much traction with the search indexing robots. His recommendation is to create a non-Flash version of the web site for the indexers and people without Flash installed.
It sounds like doing everything twice but, if you keep the non-Flash version simple and use most of the Domino defaults, perhaps not too much extra work.
I'm working on a major overhaul to my Notes/Domino infrastructure so I definitely going to give Flex a try.
Thanks for leading the way.
Peace,

p.s. what version of Notes are you using? I'm on 7. Do you recommend 8 or 8.5? rs
