A while back, I wrote a small article about why I felt Silverlight should fail. The writeup generated a lot of good conversation and a bit of ire from Silverlight supporters (such as this example) so I thought it would be beneficial to write a followup. Let me try to make this clear, I am not a Flash fanboy. While I use Flash to pay the bills, I have written about my concerns with Flash. It is my belief that use of Flash on the web (and other RIA technologies) will continue to dwindle as open-source solutions that provide similar solutions take their place. Even if Silverlight usurps Flash (something I greatly doubt), there may not be much of a kingdom to reign upon once they do. I think Adobe sees this shift, I am unsure if Microsoft does.

I barely made this week’s links by the skin of my teeth. This upcoming week may see a shortage of posts since my wife and I getting the hell out of dodge for a while. All that being said, I should have some really good content coming up in the next couple weeks.
Enjoy the links.
I have unique post coming up next week, so make sure to come back Monday morning. It will definitely be something different than the normal content on this blog - I hope it does not disappoint.
Enjoy the links.
Surprisingly, there are very few political articles in this week’s collection of links. You would think Iowa and New Hampshire would have dominated, but they didn’t. Consider this the one article on the internet where you can take a breath from politics.
Enjoy the links.
This was a pretty boring week around this blog, but that should be changing. Keep your eye out for some cool projects being published soon.
Enjoy the links.
