wow - everyone wants to talk to me again

The last few days have been pretty hectic for me. And there's been a recurring theme - Silverlight.

Seems the announcements from MIX07 last week have broken through (Microsoft Lights Way for Next-Generation Web Development and Design at MIX07) and now folks want to know more.

I've been contact by lots people who I used to talk to many, many years ago, and they are all after info on Silverlight.

Cool.

So, what do I tell them?

First, I point them to these :

• Silverlight Home
• Get Started
• White Papers
• Quick Starts
• Silverlight Streaming

Then I tell them to watch the MIX07 Session Recordings.

Then I point to some of the video interviews from MIX07

• Hanselman and Harsh -- What is Silverlight?
• Ryan Stewart Interviews Silverlight Guys
• Gavin Gear Demonstrates Ink Support in Silverlight
• Neil Hunt of Netflix on Silverlight

Then I list out some videos of the cool demos from MIX07

• Disney Keynote Demo
• Nissan/National Geographic Keynote Demo
• BBC Radio One Keynote Demo
• CBS MIX07 Keynote Demo
• Major League Baseball MIX07 Demo
• Netflix Uses Silverlight for Video on Demand

Then I send a summary of the announcements from MIX07

• The beta of Microsoft Silverlight 1.0 is now available
• The CTP of Microsoft Silverlight 1.1 is now available
• Expression Studio now shipping
• Microsoft Silverlight Streaming
• Windows Live Platform Terms of Use

Finally I them that the need to get to ReMix

And from now on, I'm going to link my old friends to this post - LOL
