what's the motive of silverlight articles, samples and tutorials

Silverlight is:

(1) A programming model for developing and distributing rich Internet applications (RIA) that use graphics, animations or video within the .NET framework.

(2) A plug-in from Microsoft for delivering media created with Silverlight. The Silverlight plug-in is both cross-browser and cross-platform. Notably, this makes it interoperable with Apple's OS X and both the Safari and Firefox Web browsers, along with Windows and Internet Explorer.

Silverlight allows the distribution of multimedia as an integral part of an application, in full screen and with a support for partial high definition (HD) video at 720p resolution.

Silverlight's introduction can be interpreted as a direct challenge to Adobe's Flash application, with some industry pundits going as far as to call it a "Flash-killer." As Flash dominates the market for rich Internet media creation software, Microsoft will have a significant hurdle to clear in convincing both the development and designer communities to adopt the new platform.
