Barak's Silverlight News and Analysis

Did you know that computers are useless? They only give you answers. (P.Picaso)
Under the Surface

This week Microsot revealed Microsoft Surface. A new computer platform that is based on Windows Vista and WPF that enables users to grab data with their hands, interact with physical objects that are positioned on the surface using natual gestures and touch.

You may ask, what is the connection with Silverlight? well, WPF and Silvelright share the same XAML based presentation markup. And shortly after Surface was released, a Silverlight sample that shows a similar interface was posted here.

Finally it is fare to note that the Microsoft Surface site is not implemented yet on Silvelright (due to the fact that Silverlightis not released yet).
