Well, I was browsing the Microsoft downloads site looking for SP1 for SharePoint and a wee popup asked if I would like to see the http://download.microsoft.com beta…

You can view it at http://preview.microsoft.com/downloads/HomePage.aspx and see what you think. My Silverlight guru collogue Charlie Holland is currently pulling the site apart to see how it ticks…

Good luck

I have been finding it interesting the even recent additions to Microsoft’s web content has been in Flash and I am glad to see some movement towards dogfooding Silverlight…
