Why was Silverlight created
Short Description
In a world where the Internet appears more frequently in our everyday lives, static web sites composed only from text and pictures have become boring. A solution for this problem was the creation of PHP. Suddenly it was possible for the Server to create dynamical web sites, depending on the choices the user made. Still this wasn’t the best solution, because the server had to do all the work. Through the creation of JavaScript, it was suddenly possible for the client to take over a part of the workload. JavaScript allows the Developer to create a Code which will be executed from the Browser on the Client side, and so change the look of the web page, without the need to communicate with the Server. This allow for a more interactive and faster responding web pages. Two big “problems” with JavaScript are that, it is really hard to program in it, and everybody can see the JavaScript code.

Using Silver light to Build a hero bar with ASP.NET
Short Description
Silverlight is a new Web presentation technology that is created to run on a variety of platforms. It enables the creation of rich, visually stunning and interactive experiences that can run everywhere: within browsers and on multiple devices and desktop operating systems (such as the Apple Macintosh). In consistency with WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation), the presentation technology in Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 (the Windows programming infrastructure), XAML (eXtensible Application Markup Language) is the foundation of the Silverlight presentation capability.

Silverlight Overview
Short Description
Silverlight 1.1 will contain a substantial subset of the .NET 3.5 runtime (also running cross-browser and cross-platform) and will enable a new generation of smart/rich internet applications. Silverlight 1.1 has the potential to become an ASP.NET or even an HTML application killer, especially where sophisticated, feature-rich applications are involved. Silverlight will essentially host a full .NET runtime engine within a sandbox on the client computer and allow a .NET smart client application to run on any platform, all with the same deployment characteristics as a thin-client application (once the Silverlight plug-in has been installed). Essentially, Silverlight creates a “best of both worlds” environment, in which users can experience responsive, media-rich internet applications that leverage local computing power and resources, while administrators enjoy the benefits of ?notouch ? deployments and centralized control.

Using Web Analytics with Microsoft Silverlight
Short Description
Rich interactive applications and media players built using Microsoft Silverlight are easily integrated with web analytics services such as WebTrends On Demand, Omniture SiteCatalyst, Google Analytics, and Microsoft AdCenter Analytics. These services collect data about web usage behavior and allow business to measure how websites perform against business goals. Because most web analytics services use JavaScript page tags to identify and quantify web usage behavior, they easily integrate with Silverlight’s JavaScript programming model. Silverlight 1.0 is a plug-in for the browser that exposes a JavaScript programming model which fits naturally with web analytics services. When it is released in 2008, Silverlight 2 will add a .NET programming model to the JavaScript one, and as such, future versions of Silverlight will also integrate with the web analytics service. Because the design in Silverlight is separate from the application logic, once analytics are implemented in Silverlight applications, it is easy to see if a change in design achieves the desired business goals through A/B testing.

IdeaBlade Silverlight Overview
Short Description
Silverlight (formerly known as WPF/E or Windows Presentation Foundation / Everywhere) is a cross-platform browser plug-in being developed by Microsoft that is designed to provide a richer internet experience for enterprise and consumer applications. Silverlight 1.0 has been called a ?Flash killer? in that it will provide enhanced animation, vector graphics, and video playback capabilities. Although these features are interesting for improving the multimedia experience on the web, the real potential for Silverlight lies in the feature set to be released with version 1.1.
