I am a bit confused about the difference between Silverlight and Expression Blend. From my understanding, Silverlight is used to create a better interface, and Blend is used to create animations? Meaning you can use Silverlight without having to use Expression Blend (there is much demand for Silverlight developers, but I from what I know, Silverlight is pretty easy to grasp). You can use Silverlight without using Blend, but you cannot use Blend without using Silverlight. Would that be correct?

    Silverlight is a technology, and it is used to develop rich internet applications. In visual studio you can do both, develop the whole site, and change the way it looks, but Blend is a design tool that makes it easy to apply design to your site. So u cant create a whole silverlight site just in blend. Consider it as a help tool.

    here is a nice blog about silverlight: http://www.windowspresentationfoundation.com/ much of useful info there
