another commercial silverlight website, this one is based on tracking election processes via the power of msn live search.

check it here.

when i first saw this i thought, ok another lame example of silverlight in use but this is actually very nicely executed; it’s a search engine using silvelight as the frontend and msn live search for the backend.

there is some really nice features like:

• the breadcrumb effect for additional searches (folder on top of folders),
• the two views for the results (bog standard list and the tree display (found by clicking on the tree icon in the middle top)),
• carousel effect for the different search types (web, image, news, rss feed and books)
• the save function by literally dragging the article to the right side panel.

i think i’ve done writing about this little app so just check it out!!!
