I’m looking on how to incorporate silverlight in my existing application and I keep running into the latest buzz-phrase “island of richness”. What does it mean?
Thanks!

An island of richness is a (relatively) small area of rich, dynamic content (e.g. Silverlight, Flash, or heavy AJAX) on a page which is mostly regular HTML. It’s as opposed to a page whose entire content is Silverlight-enabled.
So basically, it’s when the page contains some Silverlight content, but that isn’t the only content in the page.
