I enjoyed a surprise visit today from an old friend Andrew Pardoe who I've known since the late 80's early 90's when he was working on his undergraduate degree at Kent State University. Andrew or AP as his old friends call him has been working at One Microsoft Way, in Redmond Washington for about a decade. As it turns out he is also now the program manager for the Microsoft's new Silverlight multimedia software which for the lack of a better description of anything that currently exists I'll compare to Adobes Flash. Microsoft recently revamped their web site using the Silverlight software which got my attention.
Silverlight includes 720p high-definition video which can be streamed from about any type of Internet connection. Andrew demonstrated some of the features to me and I've seen eye candy before, but this has some icing on the cake features. I guess I get turned on over the simple things and when I saw the web pages flipping like the pages of a book, it made a simple concept look like a complex motion picture movie production. |
