Cool new ASP.NET 3.5 and Silverlight demo application

Steve Marx apparently never gets tired of writing video centric web sites... he has done it again and it is very cool.  I am impressed with the fact that there is so few lines of code (in fact there is more CSS markup than code).. this is due to the simplicity that Linq, ASP.NET 3.5 and Silverlight brings to the developers. 

Here is the the code and a screen cast.

 

Steve uses a bunch of new stuff!

  • Searching and paging via ListView, DataPager, and LinqDataSource (all new ASP.NET controls with .NET 3.5).
  • Video player via the Media control in the ASP.NET Futures July CTP (uses Silverlight 1.0 RC).
  • Popup biographies and "more/less" collapsible details via the new .NET 3.5-compatible drop of the AJAX Control Toolkit.
  • Back/forward buttons support via the History control in the ASP.NET Futures July CTP.

 

Enjoy!
