NFL Flash Player
As per my last post the US National Footaball League (NFL) have choosen to go with Adobe and Flash to provide online video and media content. A couple of people like Gilbert Corrales and Ryan Stewart have already had a look at the look and feel of the player and some of it's features. Notable features include 5 concurrent feeds giving the possibility to swap between cameras etc. Unfortunately, just as with the NBC coverage of the Beijing Olympics using Silverlight, the content on the NFL site is US only. So unfortunately no NFL Flash goodness for the rest of us.

Writing a tutorial
If you've keept an eye on my blog you would have seen that I've just put up a two part tutorial/article (part 1, part 2) on how to build a simple animated menu using Silverlight 2, Blend 2.5 and VS 2008.
