Silicon Valley start-up Ribbit on Monday unveiled a technology platform that will let developers put Web telephony in everything from business software to popular social network sites such as Facebook.
As well as planning to sell its own services directly to consumers in the first quarter, Ribbit said it is working with more than 600 outside developers who are using its technology to create their own voice applications.
Ribbit software serves as an interface between anything from Web sites, e-mail and instant messaging to mobile or regular phones. Developers do not need to be telephony experts to build services with Adobe’s Flash software, which works on most computers.

I am trying to embed a flash slide show in XHTML strict.
This is the code I am using and that is not working:
<object type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” data=”/slideshows/newlyweds.swf” width=”500″ height=”500″>
<param name=”movie” value=”/slideshows/newlyweds.swf” />
</object>
I first used:
<object type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” data=”newlyweds.swf” width=”500″ height=”500″>
<param name=”movie” value=”newlyweds.swf” />
</object>
This code works fine, the flash file and images are in the same folder as the html file.
However, I have many flash slide shows for many pages so I am trying to put them in sub-folders (slideshows/newlyweds.swf). When I do that the flash file is not showing up on my html page. I tried linking them directly, http://www.example.com/slideshows/newlyweds.swf but that didn’t work either.
So this is how it goes
PS:
Have a look at that video from youtube:
