Google’s swiffy – convert flash animation to html5

The pros: the animation doesn’t have to be all out in the main timeline (supports movieclips), easy one step export, the animation looks the same as the swf.

The cons: doesn’t support sound or actionscript, bloated html file (also wordpress doesn’t support the code)… the html file is 88k. the swf with sound and actionscript is 33k.
