Over at Tim Sneath's Blog, Tim blogs about company called Netikatech.com who has created a bunch of cool new custom controls for both Silverlight and Flash. These controls are very cool because they have implemented the Winforms control library. This is a big step ahead for Silverlight, because you can now do in Silverlight most of the controls you see in regular Windows application in either Flash or Silverlight.
This means you can port a whole Windows Application UI over to the web and it makes porting real .NET applications to the web and a universally viewable platform possible.
Here's some examples (clicking on the graphics will bring up the Silverlight demo):
A typical tab control with buttons and radio buttons
Office-style toolbars
A datagrid
Outlook style calendaring UI
A visual studio style designer for the web
Check em out they are worth your time if you are doing Silverlight or Flash..
