Silverlight - Discover Bing Application

by Allen November 13 2009 8:57 AM

Yesterday, we released an update to a features guide about bing.com.  This was a really fun project that took some time and the efforts of several people to complete.  There is some attention being drawn to the new features in bing.  This morning, a search on Bing.com for "discover bing" returned the updated site as the 2nd result.  I saw the same ranking on Google too ;)  There was a surprising article from All Things Digital that even embedded three feature videos from the new site. 

The site is located here. Below is a screen shot of the site.  I have to say that I really enjoyed working with the designer on this project.  The look and feel that he created was exceptional and I think there was even more he was able to design that was just outside the realm of what we could capture in the final application.  Still, with great design, Silverlight 3 was the right tool to bring it to life.  Check out the animations when the site loads, on hover of the buttons, when you click on a feature button, and the slider animation that goes from one feature to the next.  We captured some very intuitive ways to get from point A to point B in this application.
