New Silverlight features in 4.0

For any silverlight fanatics out there开发者_JAVA百科, I was wanting to ask what type of new features does Silverlight 4.0 have compared to Silverlight 1.0 ? I am a Silverlight newbie and need to get that skillset accquired.

Look at this table on the official site which compares every version of Silverlight.

Wow that is a loaded question. I would suggest that you do some reading or watch some videos. Here is a link to some Silverlight 4.0 videos that should get you going http://www.silverlight.net/learn/videos/silverlight-4-videos/. Silverlight has come a very long way since version 1.0. I started with version 1.0 and its awesome to see how far the platform has come in such a short period of time.

Good luck and happy programming.

I'd start at http://www.silverlight.net/
