Design is inevitable “ Questions about whether design is necessary or affordable are quite beside the point: design is inevitable . The alternative to good design is bad design , not no design at all.” Douglas Martin designer

Developers and designers exist in two different time-space continuums

When should I use Silverlight?

You absolutely MUST be cross-platform

You need a low barrier to entry

You need a central place for deployment

You want to take advantage of ‘browser’ knowledge

You won’t have access or control over the machines your audience will use
