Microsoft islooking for developersto work on Silverlight for the Xbox 360 . Why does that matter ? Because Silverlight is the same way apps are written for Windows Phone 7 , and it runs on screen background too . Meaning : Apps .
There ’s already sorta - kinda apps for the Xbox 360 after all : Netflix , Twitter , Facebook and Last.fm . With Silverlight , it ’s potential that Microsoft could make it more subject for third - company app developing , so it ’ll go more toe - to - toe with Google TV — somethingwe’ve been wanting for a farseeing time . And the fact that it ’s a cross - platform fashion to indite apps for Microsoft stuff — Windows , Windows Phone and maybe Xbox — could make for some interesting possibilities .

It ’s possible Silverlight on Xbox means something else all , but well , we ’re really hop it means apps are in the Xbox ’s futurity . It ’d be another way for Microsoft to gallop the Xbox 360 , like it ’s just done with Kinect . [ MicrosoftviaTech TrendsviaWM Power User ]
