Gnash: Open source Flash player

FlashAdobe makes a version of the Flash Player for Linux, but by most accounts it's nothing to write home about. Gnash might change the Linux Flash experience. It's an open source player for Flash files that, unlike most (unlicensed) third-party Flash tools, supports many features up to Flash 7. Gnash uses OpenGL to render Flash movies and comes in both stand-alone and Firefox plugin versions.
