Having a good time in Vegas - a keynote to remember

Hardrock.com

First, you just have to check this outSeadragon technology comes to Silverlight in the form of Deep Zoom on Hardrock's memorabilia site.  In the keynote they were able to zoom down to the scratch marks on the guitar.

Then watch the keynote here.  I will let the video stream speak for itself.  Some really amazing technology and customer stories.
