Scott Guthrie and Christian Schormann: Web Programming, Design Tools and Silverlight 3

Today, we announce the general availability of Silverlight 3 and the Release Candidate of Expression 3. To celebrate this momentous occasion we had a few conversations with Scott Guthrie about what it all means and where it's going.

Here, VP Scott Guthrie and Director of Program Management of Expression Blend Christian Schormann sit down with me to discuss the implications of Silverlight 3 and related tools for both developers and designers. We also discuss how it is that their teams can release versions of their software so quickly and with such high quality. How does SketchFlow work and why did we invent it? Of course, we have to talk about HTML5 since most everybody else is out there... Then, there's the notion of Silverlight running outside the context of a web browser - what does this mean, exactly and how does it work. As usual, we touch on the future...

Congratulations to the Silverlight and Expression teams. Go get the bits.

You should also watch the conversation with Scott and Laurence.

Enjoy!

Man alive, that set layout needs to change pronto. There are some super awkward postures happening here.

The audio is way out of sync

Was this video a MPEG 4 file converted to WMA or H.264? Is this in Silverlight 3?
