What’s this all about? A silver light versus flash light?
Nope. It’s about the great battle of two web platform. Silverlight vs Flash is a just like about Microsoft vs Adobe.

You can find how this two company having a Smack-Down on Mashable.
I found this information is interesting. Because Flash is the old but stand-firm platform on the net, I wonder how Microsoft silverlight tried to smack flash down!
Let’s see some silverlight advertising video:
And this video will share you how silverlight will help you and what features silverlight have!
Yeah, yeah… Good features. It’s cross platform, HD-Video Supported, Full screen supported, and some incredible heroes are on the show! ![]()
So, what about Adobe Flash? What good on it? As you know, Flash player has been a “Legend” on the web. Can Microsoft beat Flash this year? Hmm… I don’t think so. why? See this video and you will know!
The new adobe flash player that will launched this June is even more creative than before. There is a clickable video-on-video, and You can have a different shopping experience within Adobe Flash player.
Adobe add some interactivity on the video. So, you won’t only passively watching video, but you also can take a part on the video! ![]()
Well, anything have its own good and bad perspective to see. Future developer may include both flash and silverlight on the same web page to give their user more enjoyable browsing moment. As Flash is the Elder of the platform, Silverlight comes to solve problems that flash can’t handle.
You can read some Developer story on Flash and Silverlight here. This story will open your mind on how flash and silverlight can work together rather than smacking down each other! ![]()

Hm, interesting story… that silver light looks promising.
2007-06-03 04:00:53
Yes, Mason! Silverlight indeed look promising. They support High Definition movie. I just wonder will silverlight working together with joost…
2007-06-03 04:18:50
Probably not because it was made from those kazaa/skype guys… maybe joost can play HD someday though. Right now cable internet is too slow.

I think I would like to test out both before I decide which is the best. So far, I have seen wonderful works done using Flash. Let’s see what Silverlight has to offer
2007-06-03 05:54:24
Mason: You’re right, seems silverlight still a “dream” software for people who have a slow internet connection. Watching tv & movie online? forget it! I think microsoft’s vision is too high. Well, kind of bad solution for developing country citizen to enjoy his product.
Criz: Hi, Sensei(or doctor instead
).You’re right! Research and testing before actually using a product is a very wise decision.

i did not use silverlight so i can’t tell about it, any way it was quite interesting
2007-06-03 13:13:17
Santa: Silverlight is still a new born baby. So, I also can’t tell much about it. I hope we can see some future in this microsoft new product.

2007-06-04 03:39:57
You are welcome, Jamy!
You called me guru?? Wow, you make me blushing Jamy!
I think I’m still not deserved that status yet!
But, thanks anyway…!

I think with the wealth and expertise, Microsoft Silverlight can be a stiff competitor for Adobe Flash.
2007-06-04 13:26:36
hmmm… Do you think so? But I still believe in quality take control of everything.
If silverlight’s quality proved to be lower than Adobe flash-the elder of this platform, Users will hate to microsoft death if they use their money to slap adobe’s face!
So, let’s wait for what silverlight will bring us, it’s the quality or the wealth that microsoft will expose about…
2007-06-04 18:03:31
I’m working in Flash and I will definitely try this Microsoft stuff out soon.
2007-06-04 23:13:06
Sure, let’s see how silverlight will fill our needs. I’m also a flash user. Hope we can take something out of silverlight!
