Comments on: Poll: Will Flash developers learn Silverlight? http://joel.neubeck.net/2008/07/poll-will-flash-developers-learn-silverlight/ Simplifing structure without changing results Thu, 20 Nov 2008 22:08:23 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Fallon Massey http://joel.neubeck.net/2008/07/poll-will-flash-developers-learn-silverlight/#comment-660 Fallon Massey Fri, 25 Jul 2008 06:27:28 +0000 http://joel.neubeck.net/?p=191#comment-660 Nobody in their right mind will use SilverLight on the internet for a long time. If the Flash developers are on an intranet, maybe, but WPF may be a better choice there. Until a user can just go to a page with SilverLight and use it, just like Flash, SilverLight won't see the light of day on the Web. I suspect that will happen some time next year... if it gets released this year. Nobody in their right mind will use SilverLight on the internet for a long time.
