MIX07 Session: Extending the Browser Programming Model with Silverlight

There have been a lot of great sessions here at MIX07. To compliment those sessions, there has been some great blog coverage as well. A great post is this one from from Scott Hanselman, that puts things into context quite nicely.

Today I attended a session called "Extending the Browser Programming Model with Silverlight" that really stood out. This session wasn't about streaming media or design, instead it addressed the core of Silverlight - working with Web Services, Application Services (Roles coming soon), Isolated Storage (which is going to be huge), the .NET CLR and of course JavaScript. There are still things that are being ironed out, but the future looks promising and Stefan Schackow did an excellent job of explaining not only how things worked but what to look for in future releases.

Look for this session to become available for download and streaming soon. Also, Stefan was kind enough to upload both the slides and source to his mix sandbox (I wish every session did this) before the session even began.
