Important notes: this mode is based on the flash counter off Author: Seungho Choo URL:
http://tangible.new21.org all rights reside at Seungho Choo
customize:Edit the included
fla file with flash (change font, color etc.)
Known problems:- after loading the page the counter shows up - but keeps on flashing "loading..." -> probably a permission problem -> check
