Sawdust – Great Demo for WPF
This may not work for everybody so my apologies if you can’t access the linked web site. WPF is part of Vista but comes separately ( I have Windows XP but upgraded to the recent version of the .NET Framework) and is a demo of Microsoft’s new display technology. It can also be used on websites (with a small download) if you have WPF installed.
This is a nice demo of WPF- it makes a web page just like using Windows with slick multi tabbed controls, sliders and some 3D display. Yes it could be done in Flash but would probably take a lot more work. It’s all part of the future of the web- do we want slick graphics and videos but easy website development or still stuck in a HTML page with embedded videos mindset? Microsoft are trying to make it easier to develop web sites like this. And they will be accessible from non-Windows PCs. Interesting stuff! After nearly 15 years of html websites, it’s about time!
