Guy Barrette's Blog - Mix08: The WideOpen and Deep Zoom Web

Sunday, March 09, 2008

One of the coolest demos shown at the Mix08 keynote was the Hard Rock Cafe Memorabilia Website created by the folks at Vertigo using SilverLight 2 Beta 1. It is using a technique called Deep Zoom. Very cool and impressive.
