Flash can be used to build interactive application components that can be added to an existing website or be itself a web destination. Below are just a few examples of applications that are well suited for Flash construction:

Interactive Content: For example, a table manufacturer may show a basic table and allow users to instantly change the table, leg and color options by clicking their mouse.

Presentations: Think PowerPoint but with greater flexibility, graphics can be animated and/or allow user interactivity.

Online Testing: Flash is well suited for online testing applications. Immediate feedback can be given as to answers as well as database storage of results.

E-Commerce: Online stores that sell custom products can have a Flash Application that allows detailed product customization prior to that item being added to the users shopping cart.
