We would like to share with SilverlightShow community that CompletIT - the company behind SilverlightShow
- has become
Microsoft Featured Silverlight Partner for March 2010.
We are happy to receive this recognition as a result from our Silverlight experience,
and our continuous efforts to facilitate the adoption of Silverlight for line-of-business
applications.
Two years ago we founded
SilverlightShow to create a community where sharing of experience is welcome,
appreciated and encouraged. We did our best to turn SilverlightShow into a portal
offering only hot, high-quality content.
We would like to
thank all of you for your contribution to making
SilverlightShow one of the most popular portals for Silverlight resources. Without
your active participation in the discussions, article and news authoring, SilverlightShow
and CompletIT wouldn't have achieved their recognition and popularity. We will keep
investing our efforts in making SilverlightShow portal better, even more content-rich,
and of course - more Silverlight.
Look forward to the portal's new Silverlight
look!
