The Last Word

In this chapter, you explored the interaction between ASP.NET web services and Silverlight. You saw how to build a basic and more advanced web service, how to monitor the network connection of the local computer, and how to support two-way web service communication. You'll build on these fundamentals in Chapter 20 and Chapter 21, as you explore how you can use a web service to provide your Silverlight application with information extracted from a server-side database.
