Silverlight looks promising
Posted 15 Sep 2007 by Akinwale Ariwodola
I know, it's been around for a considerable amount of time now. I just started getting my hands dirty with it, and it's very good. For the uninformed, Microsoft Silverlight is a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in for delivering the next generation of .NET based media experiences and rich interactive applications for the Web (in other words, an alternative to Flash, finally).

One thing I've also noticed is how Silverlight doesn't seem to use as much resources as Flash. I haven't really done extensive testing though, so I may not know for sure.

I got to see the Bourne Ultimatum, which was rather good, but left me feeling a little bit empty at the end, and Rush Hour 3 (with a date), very entertaining flick. Everyone should see Rush Hour 3.

Now I'm looking forward to Resident Evil: Extinction. Other releases that I'd also like to see in passing include Superbad, 3:10 to Yuma and Shoot 'Em Up, in no particular order of preference.
