eBay Simple Lister beta

As a next step to the story that began on the of the keynote with Scott Guthrie at MIX10 and  Silverlight4 launch keynote at Devconnetions today launched the the eBay Simple Lister app is now in a public beta in eBay garden. This new Simple Lister beta as mentioned on the eBay garden is an experiment to radically simplify selling on eBay by using eBay’s rich database of product details to create item listings, get more pricing guidance on items you want to sell and quickly crop, resize, edit photos, scan barcode.

This is really exciting as this is first Line Of Business application built on Silverlight4.

This Silverlight 4 application was built using Sketchflow, Blend, and Visual Studio 2010 and some features of Silverlight4 that was is building the app are as follows:

• Elevated Trust for Out of Browser
• Notification Windows (toasts)
• WebCam
• Silverlight as a Drop Target
• Field Level Validation
• Digitally signed elevated trust out of browser application
• File system access (for photos)
• Custom window chrome

This application was designed and developed by Cynergy Systems for eBay in 8 weeks.

My good friend and colleague John Papa a Sr.Technology Evangelist in Microsoft who was part of this project has a very nice and simple blog post on how to install and use the eBay Simple Lister.

As the eBay Simple Lister application is in beta so please make sure to provide feedback after giving it a try.
