WPF for Windows Application Development.

Silverlight for Web Application Development.

We can use WCF with both.

At the same time try look into Windows Phone 7.1 - Mango.

If we knows XAML then its easy to learn above three..

So start learning XAML.

The best way depends on you. The best way for one person is not the best way for another.

All three, WPF, WCF, and Silverlight are three major areas of development. Instead of trying all at once, I would say, learn one at a time. Pick Silverlight or WPF. Before that, you need to learn XAML.

Hi Sanjai,

I am glad to hear that you are highly interested in learning the new technologies. My advice is learn it yourself than investing in some study centres. There are lot of material on the net to help you with that.

For silverlight you can try http://www.silverlight.net/. I learnt from this site.

For WCF there are lot of articles across csharpcorner. You can check out http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Articles/ArticleListing.aspx?SectionID=1&SubSectionID=192

I, hope this helps.
