RIA Thought Leader, Web Spiders, Identifies Key Industry Developments Following Microsoft Partner Conference in Houston

-- Company CEO Lends Insight On Exploding Rich-Internet and
Rich-Mobile Apps

-- Validity of company Strategies for Silverlight and Enterprise
Content Management Reinforced by Microsoft Leaders
SUCCASUNNA, N.J.--(Business Wire)--
Web Spiders, Inc. (www.webspiders.com), the premier global Web 2.0
rich Internet and rich mobile application (RIA) product development
company for entrepreneurs and independent software vendors (ISVs),
today offered perspective on trends and the future of RIA and
applications development following this month's Microsoft Partner
Conference. Web Spiders showcased its enterprise-scale RIA offerings
at the conference, and solidified its leadership as among the first to
launch a full-fledged Silverlight practice.

"Even as Microsoft was introducing its groundbreaking Silverlight
application platform, Web Spiders was at the fore with a complete,
up-and-running practice in Silverlight and SharePoint," said Siddharth
"Sid" Jhunjhunwala, Web Spiders CEO. "We are pleased that the
conference validated our vision in specialized Windows mobile and rich
Internet services, and look forward to the opportunity to share our
view of the industry in light Microsoft's groundbreaking services
system."

Among the trends and topics Web Spiders identified that will
explored and expanding by the center, the following were central:

-- The soundness of the Microsoft strategy is solidly reinforced.
For example, the NBC Beijing Olympics site is perhaps the most
prominent model of Silverlight implementation.

-- Silverlight and WPF (for rich client desktops) ultimately will
become the front end for all MS Web apps and client apps.
Microsoft's own CEO, Steve Ballmer, even noted during the
conference that SharePoint was fastest of the company's
offerings to reach $1 billion in sales. Moreover, the demand
for SharePoint services now far outstrips availability of
system integrators.

-- Among the benefits to become central in the roll out of
Silverlight will be the ability to "Say No to Refresh." A
perhaps surprising driver for Silverlight will be the
obsolescence of the refresh command while on a Web site
seeking to get immediately updated information.

-- Web Spiders is today assured of the validity of both its RIA /
Silverlight strategy and its enterprise content management
strategy, reinforced as they have been by Microsoft's top
executives.

A seasoned spokesperson on all things Web 2.0, Jhunjhunwala is a
serial entrepreneur with more than ten years of chief executive
experience in systems and software.
