Microsoft Silver Light

I had bad experiences of some websites opening properly in IE and not in Firefox and Vice versa. This list goes on.. some times it is even possible that some websites which will open properly in Windows wont open properly in Macintosh. So whats the solution to this.

Microsoft has come up a new technology called microsoft silver light.

This is what they say about this technology:

Silverlight is a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in for delivering the next generation of Microsoft .NET–based media experiences and rich interactive applications for the Web.

This text is from microsoft.com

Silverlight is a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in for delivering the next generation of .NET-based media experiences and rich interactive applications (RIAs) for the Web. Silverlight offers a flexible programming model that supports AJAX, Visual Basic .NET, C#, Python, and Ruby and integrates with existing Web applications. Silverlight media capabilities include fast, cost-effective delivery of high-quality audio and video to all major browsers including Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Windows Internet Explorer running on Mac OS or Microsoft Windows. By using Microsoft Expression Studio and Microsoft Visual Studio, designers and developers can collaborate more effectively using the skills they have today to light up the Web of tomorrow.

So ultimate concept i believe.

I have not seen any other websites which have adopted this technology though.
