June General Meeting:
Building Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) with Silverlight & PHP

Even though Mother Nature may not know it's June, it is, and time for our
June meeting.  We'll welcome back Peter Laudati and Microsoft, to give us a
refreshing "summer" refresher on the Silverlight and PHP play.

In March 2007, Microsoft introduced Silverlight to the market as a new
platform for developing rich internet applications. Silverlight is a
cross-browser, cross-platform, and cross-device plug-in for delivering the
next generation of media experiences and rich interactive applications for
the Web. By using various tools, designers and developers can collaborate
more effectively using the skills they have today to light up the Web of
tomorrow. Silverlight is a client-side technology with no dependencies on
the Microsoft web stack (.NET). Therefore, it can be a perfect complement to
PHP applications.

Come join us as we take a tour around Silverlight, including its
capabilities, how to develop Silverlight applications, and the tools used.
We'll also talk about how you can use Silverlight together with PHP to take
user experiences to the next level!

And join us at TGI Friday's at 56th and Lexington after the meeting for FREE
food and drink, thanks to Microsoft.
