Two more Microsoft Labs deliverables debut
Two of Microsoft’s hybrid research-product labs made available test versions of new wares this week.
Microsoft’s Live Labs — the unit that married Microsoft Researchers with MSN developers — quietly delivered a new spinoff to its Seadragon technology. (Seadragon is best known as the technology powering Deep Zoom, a seamless-browsing feature of Microsoft’s Silverlight.) The new spinoff, known as Seadragon Ajax, allows users to embed a Deep Zoom viewer in their blogs, Web sites, or “even your eBay listing.”
