I was completely enthralled by this video at the MSDN Channel 9 site. As an intermediate web developer (hobby), applications that I currently use: Fireworks, Dreamweaver, SwishMax, Notepad etc. do the job. My requirements from those apps. aren't very stringent, but seeing the way that MS has solved a lot of my problems with their new Expression suite - the realtime rending of Vector, bitmap, 3D all wrapped up and generating C# code - makes a lot of sense. In other words, very impressive.

More information about the Expression suite can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/products/expression/en/default.aspx

Found this link on Slashdot about building RSS (really simple syndication) in to the new version of Windows, code-named "Longhorn".
