In a move that could add substantial volumes of Flash content to Internet search results, Adobe is working with Google and Yahoo to provide optimized Flash Player technology to enhance the searching of this content.
The project, being announced Tuesday, will enable searches on Flash content to return text and links, which can then be indexed, said Justin Everett-Church, Adobe senior product manager for the Flash Player. Content from a Flash application or even a game or advertisement will be available to search engines. Pages containing a Flash .SWF file will be returned in a search.

| Due to the nature of swf files, searches will not be able to pin point to the exact frame in the swf file. To achieve this they will have to release another version of Flash or to set up rules (w3.org) for building swf files, otherwise the designers will not know how to optimize swf files. |
