iOSFlashVideo; Finally Free Flash on iPhone!

Hey guys, I found something interesting I’d like to share, its called iOSflashvideo!
My biggest complain for a long time now has been that the iPhone doesn’t support flash video, that’s because it was rumored that Apple and Adobe (the makers thereof) don’t get along, and it has been said that Steve Jobs would never allow Flash to be supported. I don’t know the details, so I wont speculate. Now I know there are a few apps from the app store that do allow use of Flash video, like CloudBrowse, or Skyfire, but to me these apps are more a pain than they are worth, for starters Skyfire rings in at $2.99 to purchase, and CloudBrowse costs $6 a month to use for more than 5-10 minutes at a time. Yes I want Flash, but, like most users, I want it free.
Enter iOSflashvideo.
iOSflashvideo isn’t an app, it’s a website. More specifically it is a website that you bookmark, and once you bookmark (known better as a bookmarklet) it, you now have access to all the flash videos that you have been missing, at least for certain websites. To elaborate, iOSflashvideo is still new, and they are expanding on the list of supported sites everyday, but like anything else it takes time. Before I walk you through how to add this to your iDevice, (I.E. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch) I must tell you there is just a bit more to it than simply bookmarking, so hang around, don’t navigate away just yet
