One of the best kept secrets of Mix is that SeaDragon has been integrated into Silverlight, and is now called DeepZoom. This is ... huge. If you don't know about SeaDragon (hands down my favorite MS product), you have to start with Blaise Aguera y Arcas' incredible presentation at TED last year. Then you want to check out the keynote demo Hard Rock Cafe put together for Mix. Check out the interview with the Hard Rock folks here at Mix. And then install Silverlight 2, and get over to the Hard Rock Memorabilia site and start playing. For the best experience, make sure you have a mouse with a scroll wheel.
