Nice flipping Silverlight Photo Module on MSN Korea

The MSN Korean team has added a new Silverlight Photo viewer on their main site.  Its nice and subtle and rotates time-based or by mouse hover, bu there are two interesting details.

First, they "localized" the Silverlight install experience. In Korea, people are accustomed to ActiveX installation. If a user who doesn’t have the Silverlight runtime installed, they see the green install bar in IE.

They other detail is they've made the Photo Module available as a Web Slice. So you can quickly browse the photo in IE any time.  Nicely done.

Yep, that's it.  That's odd that the link was removed.  Looks like the editor is working correctly again.
