It was just a little word play. SPA => spa (that massage like thingy).

Used to think so too but i just got a far better paying job that requires me to learn silverlight. The much more positive bit about this is that while learning silverlight, you are in a certain way also getting into WPF & XAML(both WPF & silverlight extensively use XAML). So i am lietraly being paid to learn WFP & XAML, in the process getting ready for Windows 8 development.

And I'm one of those keeping VB6 alive 
Not that I'd care about VB6 but we have some legacy projects and nobdy is willing to pay for a complete code rewrite

Agree your case.
Sad thing is still I'm seeing questions like I need to develop a CRUD or something like that(like they want to start pragramming life with VB6). Clickety[^]
This one[^] is ultimate

I found this while browsing latest CP blogs.
Where is Silverlight now?[^]

You'll hit a much wider audience with Android development. I won't touch Windows 8 or Phone.
|
|
|
|

But I like Windows Phone ... you should try it. Most intuitive UI out there.

and ... I'm a Microsoft guy so the millions of users on windows phone will do.

Well, I know OpenGL 2 and DirectX 9 to 11. The next I want to learn is OpenGL 4, but I'm afraid it could happen that I don't find the time for it.

I started my career in MVC project, though I do not have much knowledge in it So I need to revise MVC and WCF(interview could be any time  ).
Right now am learning Asp.Net, side by side have to learn both
Thanks,

I'm pretty comfortable with desktop environments, so I would like to try more in the web and mobile area
Browser compatability was always a thing that frustrated and turned me away from web pages in the past, not sure if that's still an issue though these days?
I've also done a few Android apps, but I don't have Java installed on my PC, so will need to re-setup a VM; I also found Eclipse quite difficult to use, but I guess that'll get easier with time.
In fact, setting up any toolchain is always a ballache...

Interested in learning ASP.NET MVC.

|
|
|

Yeah, It comes under Asp.Net.

That's something that looks very interesting to me, especially since we're doing a lot of ASP.NET/JavaScript development it always frustrates me to no end that there's no way to compile JavaScript (which sucks when doing major refactoring). For me the interesting part is that it's from Microsoft, and it should fit right in with our projects.

It was on my ToDo list for last year as well.
Progress so far: zero, if you don't count installing software.

Why not HTML5? I'm not mobile developer but friends has shown me work they can code up webpages that fits on various mobile devices as though they are native apps.
With HTML5, you dont need to worry about getting tied down to a dying vendor in ten years time.
|
|
|
|
|
Although I've seen some HTML5 sites that don't work well at all in phones.... for example, Grooveshark is a great HTML5 site, but when you try to use it on a phone its clunky.

To this problem, my friend, who's shown me this impeccable website of his, used Bootstrap[^]
I never used it so I can't tell how it works, but I'd be curious to get my hands on it.

Ha! I installed the software the previous year and made zero progress last year.
I actually took another stab it a few weeks ago, but discovered to my bewilderment that I couldn't include a file with uppercase letters in its name.
