When the idea of hosting videos on Youtube for a particular site we were building went heads up at the last minute and we urgently needed to find another solution fast, Silverlight and Expression Encoder 2 came to the rescue!

**I'd like to thank Tim Heuer (http://www.timheuer.com) who often provides extremely helpful information regarding Silverlight and its capabilities.

I have arrived!
Hi there, welcome to my very first post on my very first blog!
Q: Who am I and whats this all about?
A: I'm a Software Developer. I live in Cape Town, South Africa, often referred to as "The Mother City". This is my personal public space on the world wide web where I can ramble on about pretty much anything - such as life, love, the integral workings of the infinite mind of Rogan Flitton, but more importantly Microsoft.NET, Web 2.0, Silverlight and anything else I'm fortunate enough to spend late nights coding away on!
When I was first asked to start a blog and begin documenting my experiences around .NET, Web 2.0 and Silverlight, I was intrigued and excited by the idea. Lets face it, the IT industry is vast and continuously changing with new concepts technologies, methodologies and ways of doing things creeping up daily. And for this reason, like all software developers out there, I spend a large portion of my time on blog sites like this one in order to keep up to speed with whats new and happening out there, and also, more often than not, for pieces of code and discussions which may help to solve the various problems which face me in my day to day tasks. Therefore, this blog is a means to share all knowledge I gain, and to hopefully help fellow developers out there, the same as other blogs have often helped me.
