Making your first Deep Zoom App

Deep Zoom is a manifestation of microsoft's open source technology for use in image viewing applications. This concept has revolutionized high resolution image viewing, specially on the internet where the loading time and size are important concerns. The silverlight deep zoom app provides a brilliant solution for this need, and yet it is extremely simple to create. Not only is it possible to view a lot of images on a single canvas, they can also be browsed and zoomed in / out in a seem-less manner.
