Updates for something no-one uses

its a good week for microsofties, what with bing, windows fixes that themselves need fixing and now this old tripe

all that is left is .net version 4 to round off the week

Duz it come with a HTML5 tag?

I wouldn't say no one uses it. Have you seen Photosynth and DeepZoomPix? http://photosynth.net/ and http://deepzoompix.com/ Both good implementations. I hope v3 enables some killer desktop apps, of TweetDeck ilk.

I have managed to stop Silvershite sullying my browsers, and long may that continue.

I might consider it when it becomes fully cross-platform (different browsers, different OSs); but HTML5 looks more interesting to me.

Gee whizz.

I couldn't give two beakers of fermented monkey piss. Assuming of course it doesn't break Flash in other people's browsers. Hope someone's already writing a blocker add-on for Firefox.

They'll be on Silverlight 35 before we know it. They really don't want moonlight catching up do they? Adobe, just open up Flash already!

The Flash file format is already open for anyone to read and re-implement.
