Assuming you're at least moderately conversant in your language of choice, as well as .Net in general, so all that remains is learning the Silverlight-specific part, the best way to learn a new technology is to jump into the deep end of the pool, and just start coding, and keep your browser on Google. BTW, the VAST majority of Silverlight examples you'll find will be in C#.

You could start with a few videos or read a book on Silverlight to get started.
However, the only to learn a language is to write some code and by spending some time practicing the language,

You might also check Silverlight's website[^] for tutorials. They have the traditional Hello World program that can help you get started. Goodluck.

Real men don't need maps, and don't need tutorials. :)

I like your idea, personally. However, even a real man needs reference manual. The sad fact is: I once realized that... not everyone is a real man. Moreover, real men are relatively rare. Didn't you notice that? So, who do you address your advice to? I think I understand: if the advice somehow reaches a real man, it might help, if not -- there is nobody to care about.

However, I can imagine that your comments encourage those having a potential of becoming a real man to become a real man... :-)
