I had resisted signing up to Twitter as I really didn't see the point and now that my little family has grown over the festive season I have even less time (I've heard that reading tweets can become addictive :D ). I did however see how Twitter could...
It looks like Adobe have just released version 10 of their Flash Player with a bunch of enhancements. Now that Silverlight 2 is out the competition really begins. http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Application-Development/Adobe-Releases-Flash-Player-10/?kc=rss...
Well I think most blogs already have this covered but Silverlight 2 is out! http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2008/10/14/silverlight-2-released.aspx One question I asked (after I said congratulations on the release of course :D) was: I have a question...
In my last points of interest post I mentioned that an announcement was going to be made today. I thought it would either be a release date announcement (if they were going to miss the PDC) or that Silverlight was actually released. Well it appears it...
I've decided to restart my "Points of interest" posts. To get the ball rolling I'll start off small: Open Source Old news but Jitterbit 2.0 was released in August . http://www.jitterbit.com The Jitterbit Integration Solution combines intuitive integration...
I've often commented on my wish for the Silverlight team to focus a little more on Search Engine Optimisation (and printing support....but that's a topic for another day) as I feel that this is one area that could put off a lot of business users (yes you can argue that it is an application and if your application is content rich then possibly your application should be built in asp.net with occassional use of Silverlight to add "islands of richness").
There are ways of having a search engine friendly Silverlight application (my plan was to have something more solid by now but life has been busy...it is however still on my todo list :D) but I was/am hoping that it does get some attention either now or in the near future.
Looks like Adobe are aiming to do this

Microsoft is working with Nokia to get Silverlight running on Symbian mobile phones. Would this help influence your decision to use Silverlight for UI over other technologies. It seems like the build up to mix is starting to happen with more and more news coming out as we get closer to the event.

Now I usually aim to have either my own content or a collection of links (a points of interest post) instead of a single link to another site but I know a lot of people are on the lookout for anything they can find out about Silverlight 2.0 and Mix so I thought I would post this links.
DNR have just done a podcast with Scott Guthrie (well the first part is with him) where he provides more information about MIX (sounds like SL 2.0 will also have a calender control etc).......
It looks like Sandcastle has now moved to codeplex. http://www.codeplex.com/Sandcastle/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=9921 I've been looking at CI (primarily using CC.NET) a lot over the last few months and have been encountering issues with NDoc...
One of my new resolutions was to look at Silverlight more closely, especially with regards to search engine optimisation which is something I raised back in May in my "Points of interest #6" post. What are some of the things I like about Silverlight ...
