Will more brands follow? Probably. They move to where the customer is. Jakob Nielsen wrote about this long time ago “Users spend most time on other sites” and talked about early websites like “roman camps” without any interactions with other websites.

A design hotel in New York – Hudson hotel – have an amazing flash site with a sweet navigation system.What I like the most is the booking interface. Someone has put a lot of thinking into the ordering process, and the result is clearly one of the best interfaces I have seen. Really really nice.
