Cool Silverlight Stuff from Vertigo

If you missed it, Vertigo released two cool new samples last week for Microsoft.

Slide.Show

First up we have Slide.Show. Use this sample to show off your photos. I think that Silverlight is a great way to display interactive slide shows. I even submitted some photos to the Slide.Show project to include it in the sample.

The slide show page on Vertigo has a pre-configured running live demo. Definitely check it out.  Look for more info on how to use it and other documentation to come on the sample codeplex project site.

I gave Slide.Show a test run and configured it to access my Flickr feed.

Video.Show

An update to Video.Show is out. Video.Show is great if you want to have a solid base for building your own video community using .NET technologies.  On top of Silverlight, this sample uses several other great technologies like the AJAX Control Toolkit, Expression Encoder, Linq, Silverlight Streaming Service, and more.

New to this version, there is also a live site to play with.
