Silverlight 4 resources – a top 10 list
With the announcement and release of Silverlight 4 Beta, I thought it might be useful to bring together a shortlist of some useful resources to get to grips with what’s new. Silverlight’s momentum is incredible, overwhelming almost. It seems like only a few months ago we shipped Silverlight 3 (oh yeah, it was only a few months ago we shipped SL3) and yet here we are already talking about Silverlight 4 and with a beta release to play with.
