I know it will happen sooner or later, that is the mashup using Silverlight with Microsoft Virtual Earth plus other Windows web development technologies. This is only because there is a big void there in the mashup space. Here comes one, the Silverlight Presidential Election 2008 developed by Novera Consulting.
It’s all Microsoft approach, kinda refreshing somehow. This piece is developed using Silverlight, ASP.NET, Microsoft AJAX and Virtual Earth, of cause lots of JavaScripts. Even though from the application you can feel there are many developers’ touches than designers’, which we’ve been seeing lot on Flash based applications, it’s fairly attractive RIA implementation. With some seeds like this one got planted here and there, I would think Mr. MS might have a good comeback to the wild web of mashup.
