what do I win if i tell you!?
from the top:
all the pop ups are JS, everytime a certain frame is reached a corresponding JS function is called. Inside the function contains the x, y, w and h of each popup window. Both popups were assigned a unique window name when they were first opened, making it easier to target them. Now there are vars stored for window placement just in case you the user tries to move or rezie the windows at any point.

Moving on to the fact that you have two completely diff. windows with two swfs.... they can communicate... well in a number of ways. One way which is really kewl is using the localConnectionObject. Its easy and not many people know about it. Now when the movies (swfs) are loading up one thig they must do to be synced is check eachother, this can be done using the above method or by storing/checking vars with JS.

side note:
site runs slow on safari... windows become inaccessable on firefox for mac

interesting use of flash and fun to watch

That's not bad. haha

The samsung site is rather impessive and inovative though.
I like the Simpsons movie site, too.
