This is a plug-in that, once installed, allows to publish a job output from Microsoft Expression Encoder directly to the Microsoft Silverlight Streaming by Windows Live service, using the public API.
Silverlight Streaming is a content hosting service from the Windows Live team. You get 4GB of free storage and can host any Silverlight Application including videos up to 10 minutes in duration. One of the primary benefits is global scalability.. if someone visits your blog from Australia the Silverlight experience will be served up from a node near by.
The publishing plugin makes it super easy to encode and skin a video in Expression Encoder, and publish it directly to the Silverlight Streaming service in one hit. Once published, you can take the invocation HTML and insert this in your blog or elsewhere (my new spare time project is a Facebook application to automate that :-) ).
