Silverlight Wins CNET Webware 100 Award
Well this latest news is enough to bring me back from my blogging hiatus. At 3:00 PM Pacific, CNET announced Microsoft Silverlight as the Webware 100 Award winner in the Publishing category.
We are very honored and excited about this award considering it seems like just yesterday that we unveiled Silverlight at the National Association of Broadcasters conference and we are busy putting the final touches on Silverlight 1.0.
It is always great to see one's work receive industry recognition when that recognition comes from actual user votes. There were many popular finalists in the Publishing category and having Silverlight come out in the top must mean we are delivering something useful and valuable to end-users, designers, developers and content owners.
It appears those of you who voted are as excited about Silverlight as we are. I am looking forward to seeing all the amazing things you do once all that creative energy is unleashed when Silverlight 1.0 is released this summer.
