What is silverlight?

[AimyThomas]

Silverlight is new programming technique which is based on the Microsoft .NET Framework and can be integrated through existing Web infrastructure and applications, including Apache and PHP, JavaScript and XHTML on the client. Using Silverlight, designers are able to prepare media for encoding and distribution, and create W3C standards-compliant sites.

Hello,
Silverlight content are displayed on screen through text-based markup language called XAML. Although this might not mean much to the average user, it does to huge search engines such as Google or Yahoo.

Thanks
