New Silverlight Showcase (redesign).
Finally it's now online. The Silverlight folks have redesigned the showcase section of the site and it's purty. You can get the scoop on the story behind it at blog.lookorfeel.com
The previous Showcase had reached its breaking point and wasn’t scaling to keep up with all of the applications being developed. We architected an additive filtering system that disables any selections that would return an empty set of results — all of the filtering happens on the client side, not on the server. Microsoft was also very interested in highlighting the global reach of Silverlight, so countries and regions receive prominent display and filtering UI. Users can rate applications using a familiar rating paradigm.

One day at time folks, one day at a time :)
