I’ve been doing a decent amount of reading on Microsoft’s new programming platform, Silverlight, and the more I read the more impressed I become. The web of the Future will be built upon this platform. Its cross platform supported so it will run on both Windows Servers and Linus boxes. All the host really needs to do to support this is to add some new file types to their servers.

This system is very easy to utilize and you can build some fairly interesting items even if you have no programming skills at all. All that is required is the ability to use a mouse and a creative imagination. Don’t believe me, then check out some of the videos below.

You will need the SilverLight Plugin to interact with a lot of the demos so you may want to install it before you watch all the demos.
