Microsoft's SkyDrive Drops Silverlight

Whatever happened to 'eating your own dog food'? It seems that now Microsoft would rather eat dog food made elsewhere..."

Have you noticed Silverlight hasn't even had the same security concerns and exploits as Flash?

You have to be fair; noone will exploit a plugin nobody has installed or uses.
