I´d go for flash for anything 2D on the web if plugin penetration is  
more important than
visual fidelity and hardware requirements, or its about low fi 3D;
and i´d go for unity3d if visual fidelity is more important, it should  
also run nice on machines below dual core/ highend cpu with tons of  
ram or if you target mac, pc and iphone.
I´d go with silverlight if MS or another client pays me a lot of money  
to do something in silverlight.
