I’m at a conference this week. One of the sessions I sat in on today was about Silverlight 2.0. If you haven’t heard of Silverlight then you really need to give it a look. I don’t care if you are for or against Microsoft, the new Silverlight technology is going to change the way you think about web apps.  I’m going to seriously consider giving some of my sites an overhaul.  If you have a customer facing web site and want to add some zing to it then Silverlight can help.  If you have a business application, then I must admit that I’m still trying to figure out if Silverlight adds any value. Sure, you can add some cool effects and make the app look cool, but that hardly gives you a business case to justify the change.
