Welcome to the humble blog for Idiots, its almost like Web 2.1 for Dummies. EXCEPT its more blunt and half as much sodium.

I own various web-sites here and there and I'll be bloging about the extraneous task of making them from not-so-great to fantastic (in 3 easy years.) Enjoy!

Silverlight & Moonlight, Adobe moves (a millimeter)

Microsoft introduced Silverlight to an unexpecting world, and got the same response it has gotten from its other competitive products. Only Microsoft employees and really cool partners use it, everyone else prefers Adobe Air.

Microsoft's Silverlight, an original Microsoft copy.

Today I found that Microsoft released, Moonlight, silverlight for linux. Then I thought "O, it would be great to have a cross browser platform to make intuitive web applications." O wait thats already been done, hint the Adobe (Macromedia) Flash product, that now ships with newer Linux operating systems.

The good news, is there any?
Well yes, the good news is Microsoft 2.0, is striving to incorporate its best selling product, Visual Studio, into silverlight. Thats not a bad idea, an even better idea would be to allow automatic export from an application to a silverlight web application. Shoot if that happened, there would be no seamless difference between the web and windows. Windows would eventually catch on to web 2.5, and we may see an all Internet network Operating System.

Although they have not thought of the idea, the idea is very intriguing and I lick it. (Came up with that on my own, unlike Microsoft Silverlight which is just Flash on steroids. We all know what happens to athletes on steroids.)

What if Microsoft finally makes the Application and Web, world seamless?

They'd sell me there product. Hey they would actually have consumer advantage, think about it. I make an application allowing you to log-in to millions of web mail service, I click a button and instantly my application is available for Linux, mac, other windows version, and its available on line and off line. Think they'll listen.

Microsoft should stop coping Adobe Air, and other wonderful products. Instead it should plan ahead, and move into the products everyone would love. Ok, maybe not Microsoft, because if the "Omni-Application" was created most people would switch to mac and retain Microsoft functionality, and Microsoft might never get windows 7 out, lol.

Microsoft should head my advice, and create the conversion. I know its simple, and just imagine Microsoft your sales would go up. Plus Mac users would use this built applications as well as Linux users. Microsoft, would be just that Micro-Software, that runs the world.

Microsoft half the time (correct me if i'm wrong..) "borrows" other software for ideas like you've said. Almost everything that Micro$oft releases has at least a few problems, which is usually either moaned about on some unheard of blog website or by a bunch of computer geeks.

Lol, but I wasn't so much as complaining as suggesting something Microsoft should do. Which is allow .net applications to be converted into silverlight apps, so they run on millions of browsers across the universe. So no one becomes constrained by an operating system, and don't forget Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 would gain sales, and lots of them.

Lol I didn't think you was complaining, you just like "chat" about Microsoft failures and latest products. I have never used Visual Studio, I normally use other web design software, such as some menu software from http://www.opencube.com/. This saved me from loosing it from when I first started making menu's.

lol, ie 8 is ie 7 with microsoft specific html code. That scares me, didn't ie 6 try that. Why would you want to create browser specific html? That will just cause problems for everyone trying to develop in standards. I say, someone should hack Microsoft update and issue Mozilia Firefox.
