Before I start this gushing, enthusiastic blog post, you need to know three things:
1) I’m an open source advocate
2) Though literate with the PC and Windows, my preferred platform is Mac OS X
3) I’ve been on a major hunt for next generation web technologies and enablers for the new adventure I’m on.
Knowing that major changes in the paradigm of tools to build richer web applications were underway by several companies, I keep my eyes and ears open and talk to lots of people in leadership positions and just in-the-know about what’s going on. Robert Scoble’s post today about the release of Sparkle (the code name for the now beta released Microsoft Expression) led me to the Expression site. There are videos, you can download a beta release, and read FAQ’s, specs and more.
