Silverlight - Microsoft takes on Flash

Microsoft has recently released Silverlight 1.0, a .NET-based competitor to Adobe’s Flash animation product.
This is an interesting strategic move as Microsoft is moving into what is clearly established territory for the Flash brand.  Microsoft is extending the reach of the new Windows Presentation Foundations (WPF) to the web with a version being called WPF/E […]

Microsoft Longhorn/IIS 7.0 GoLive

I finally got the chance today to get back to working on PowerTray, this time with my Visual Studio 2005 installation on my Virtualized Windows Vista setup.  The first thing I ran into was this warning dialog:

To me, this is the kind of issue that shows immaturity in the OS.  Though it is possible […]

Windows Vista Launch

What kind of a geek would I be if I didn’t at least mention that Microsoft launched Windows Vista and Office 2007 this past Monday.  There, I said it.  If you want to learn more, listen to Bill.

Microsoft quietly launches .NET 3.0

With much less fanfare than the previous version Microsoft released the latest version of the .NET framework earlier this month at the TechEd Europe developers conference in Barcelona. The reason for the low-key launch? This release is a renamed, repackaged version of .NET Framework 2.0 with the new Windows Presentation Foundations (WPF, […]
