WPF/E == Silverlight

Category:UncategorizedTag: :

Microsoft announced that the the new friendly name for WPF/E is Silverlight.  Thank goodness, that was a mouthful. 

Microsoft Silverlight is not to be confused with the Silverlight Witch Coven of North Carolina, Terry Silverlight, the drummer so bold as to have released 2 solo albums of all-drum-all-the-time, or the Silverlight Dog Kennel of Romania.

The new MS Community Site for Silverlight is due to go live on April 30.

The article linked in the first sentence cites Adobe as claiming a 95% install base on all browsers.  Wow.  That’s a lot of ground to make up, but Silverlight has a lot to offer.

Should be fun to watch.
