This isn't a summary of all the announcements, just a couple of one that I thought were notable. If you want to see the actual keynote or any of the sessions they have all been recorded and are up on the Mix08 site. Some of the things that I found interesting included:
IE 8 Beta 1 is Available
They have added some interesting features and extensibility mechanism to work with content on the web and are working to abide by the W3C standards for browsers. Here is a recap of what will be in IE8
You can find more about the last two features here.
Silverlight 2.0 Beta 1 Released
They also announced that Silverlight 2.0 Beta 1 was released. Which has added the awaited support for a number of basic controls. In the previous release the target was around rich media and a basic subset of xaml.
Blend 2.0 Beta 1 is available
Expression Blend Beta 2 was released.
Coolest Application Built on Silverlight 2.0
One of the most impressive demos of the keynote was the launch of Hard Rock Cafe's memorabilia collection based on Silverlight and SeaDragon.
