The Scott Guthrie and Bill Buxton keynote at MIX09 in Las Vegas is less than four hours away. Guthrie is widely expected to talk about Silverlight 3, and the Microsoft Download Center has further confirmed his main topic for the first day of the conference. Here are three downloads that give it all away:
- Microsoft .NET RIA Services March '09 Preview (4.1 MB): Microsoft .NET RIA Services simplifies the traditional n-tier application pattern by bringing together the ASP.NET and Silverlight platforms. RIA Services provides a pattern to write application logic that runs on the mid-tier and controls access to data for queries, changes and custom operations. It also provides end-to-end support for common tasks such as data validation, authentication and roles by integrating with Silverlight components on the client and ASP.NET on the mid-tier.
- Microsoft Silverlight 3 SDK Beta 1 (9.6 MB): the Microsoft� Silverlight� 3 SDK contains online documentation, online samples, libraries and tools for developing Silverlight 3 applications. Usage of the SDK is subject to the SDK License (included in the package).
- Microsoft Silverlight 3 Tools Beta 1 for Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (31.3 MB): this package is an add-on for Visual Studio 2008 SP1 to provide tooling for Microsoft Silverlight 3. It can be installed on top of either Visual Studio 2008 SP1 or Visual Web Developer 2008 Express with SP1, and it provides a Silverlight project system for developing Silverlight applications using C# or Visual Basic.
- Microsoft Expression Blend 3 Preview: this is the preview version of Expression Blend that will enable authoring of Silverlight 3 Beta applications.
We've already noted that we expect the biggest focus to be on Silverlight 3, but that doesn't mean Microsoft doesn't have other tricks up its sleeve. Stay tuned!

Silverlight For Mac 10.6.8 Download
Microsoft has released their newest version of Silverlight plugin for internet browsers, version 3.0 with slogan “See the Light”.
Microsoft Silverlight is a programmable web browser plugin that enables features such as animation, vector graphics and audio-video playback that characterizes rich Internet applications. It is similar to Adobe Flash plugin for browsers. It’s a browser plug-in that works with Mac OS, Windows, Linux, and some mobile devices. It’s free, it’s only 4MB, and installs pretty fast (approx. 20 seconds).
Why do you need Mcrosoft Silverlight? This question is being asked so many times, and I think that’s with reason. Just like you need Adobe Flash player to view flash elements on web pages, same way you need Silverlight to be able to see internet applications that were created for Silverlight.
For example, if you go to this page, without installed plugin you can’t see some of it’s elements that were intended to be viewed with Microsoft Silverlight browser plugin enabled.
This plugin is not used across the web as much as Adobe Flash Player plugin but you might stumble upon a page that needs this installed in order to be fully experienced. So there is nothing bad if you install it now and don’t need to worry later, whenever you might need it…
