Go to Google.com and type “Flash filetype:swf” and search. Yes, that’s right Google searches the web for SWF files now. The question is, “How is this useful at all?” Other than being able to tell people that search engines index Flash files, designers may be able to create HTML independent content in Flash. Interesting enough the description fields are filled with the plain text content of the SWFs. Maybe this is a hint to start your projects with a description field.

1. That's nothing new!
Besides, wanna know something cooler? It indexes ".torrent" files too! Just do a search with "filetype:torrent" and find out. ;)
