Silverlight and Software-plus-Services

  • Article

There are a lot of changes going on with Acropolis, with all the feedback received publicly and collaboration with other product teams internally, to provide a better developer story.  If you haven't tried Acropolis August CTP yet, check it out at https://windowsclient.net/Acropolis/.  It works with VS 2008 Beta 2.  One of the cool samples to run is the line-of-business Expense sample.

After much anticipation, Silverlight was released this week!  I highly recommend checking it out: https://www.microsoft.com/silverlight.

Yesterday was the annual Company Meeting, and I'm really excited about the emerging software-plus-services model and the new technologies being demo'ed that look like right out of a science fiction movie.  I can't wait to see the impact over the next few years - it's really an amazing time and place to be in.
