Silverlight and Otaku – A match made in heaven :)

I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m an Otaku and I’m happy that I work in a job that allows me to visit Otaku heaven (Akihabara) once or twice a year. Anyway, it was only a matter of time before someone used Silverlight to build a site for Otaku like me :)

Anyway, the site is from Korea and it is at https://dalong.net. To access the cool DeepZoom-based views of some of the mecha, click MG at the top of the screen to view the models. Not all of them have a Deep Zoom collection associated with them (yet), so here’s a direct link to one: https://www.webhardservice.com/xWebDisk/deepzoom/wizPhotoZoomAlbum.html?ServerType=1&MediaID=ZGFsb25nXzIwMDgxMTA0MDQ1MDM2MjFAdmlld0AxOTIuMTY4LjEuMjEyMDA4MTEwNDA0NTEyMA__

 

Ganbarre!

  No kidding! You are an otaku also? Anyway, if you hang out on the wonderful MyAnimeList social network (http://myanimelist.net), I have recently created a blog widget which shows off the anime that you have watched. And of course, it's built with Silverlight. For someone who had absolutely zero experience coding in Silverlight, it took me a grand total of 4 hours to complete. :) Check it out! http://armchairtheorist.com/projects/myanimelist-blog-widget/
