Enterprise Web App Platform Maker UnCurls Code

,----[ Quote ]
| "The decision to release all of the Curl source code above the RTE was made 
| to encourage broad adoption of Curl as a viable enterprise RIA platform and 
| provide all of the components required to support development of Curl 
| applications," Richard Treadway, vice president of product strategy for Curl, 
| told LinuxInsider.

Rich Web technologies debated

| With the proliferation of mobile devices however, HTML browsing will not be

Audience abandons Microsoft's MIX 07 keynote

| He said that when Microsoft and other companies create communities
| around their technology, it's usually accidental, not created by
| any ad placed strategically on a web page or in a game.
| 
| "The Xbox community existed, but the Microsoft ads [in games and
| on Xbox Live] then got moved around quite by accident, not by
| design," Rasala said. "It's unclear that many companies can
| replicate that pattern by design."
| 
| After Bach's keynote, it was difficult to find attendees in
| the hall that did not work for Microsoft. Nine out of 10
| attendees approached for comment after his talk were from
| the company.

Silverlight is about The Microsoft Web.

,----[ Quote ]
| Sorry, but I have to say something very rude. You clearly don't know
| what you're talking about. That is Microsoft PR talking. Can you say
| "credibility loss".
| 
| Silverlight is about The Microsoft Web
| 
| Silverlight is not about the World Wide Web. It's about The Microsoft
| Web. It's about getting fools to rally around Microsoft. After all of
| this time and experience with Microsoft, anybody with half a brain
| will be smart enough to avoid doing that. The last thing you want to
| be is dependent on Microsoft and set yourself up to be a DIRECT
| competitor with "Microsoft Cloud Services" down the road. Dumb.
| Foolish. Stupid. Smart investors won't invest one dime in your
| company and might even short your stock.
| 
| Remember, it's Microsoft's cloud. Microsoft is not investing in
| huge datacenters all around the world for no reason. And, Microsoft
| will do whatever it takes, including operating that new online
| services business at a huge loss, to starve off any smaller
| competitor that foolishly chose to develop on the Silverlight
| platform. Microsoft sold $44 BILLION and cleared $18 BILLION
| profit last year. How many billions did you make last year?

Microsoft's Silverlight Promises to Disrupt Linux Web Users

,----[ Quote ]
| Just as it seemed that Linux users (especially 64-bit users) would
| finally be able to enjoy streaming content with a minimum of
| hassle, Microsoft's new Silverlight software promises to throw a
| wrench in the works. Because of sites like Google Video and
| Youtube, Flash video has become a common means of streaming
| multimedia over the Internet.

Lights out for Silverlight

,----[ Quote ]
| The next point is the availability of the tools. Even though you can 
| view Silverlight on OS X, you will have no chance of being able to 
| author Silverlight content without a Windows licence. This is a 
| conscious decision. On the one hand, Microsoft wants to get 
| designers using their Expression toolset yet designers will have 
| to come across to the Windows platform in order to do it. It may 
| not be such a large hurdle but it is a hurdle nevertheless. Ever 
| tried to force an OS X user onto Windows? They cry, they scream 
| and they want their (at times) consistent GUI back.
