Ah! Gmail uses AJAX, and it works very nicely from any OS or browser without Java or Flash. For a site like that which needs to be universally usable I completely agree with no Flash or Java. There are a lot of sites that use javascript just for the sake of being able to say "My site uses Java." The use of Flash and Java is out of hand, but at times I think they can create pretty nifty things that are otherwise not possible.
