Automatic page refreshes were a big pain point in SharePoint 2007. If you had a page or list that you wished to refresh at regular intervals, so it the event that another user entered items, the screen would update, there was no easy/direct way of doing this. You could of could add meta content="50/" equi="refresh" using the Content Editor Web Part but this refreshes entire the entire page.
To overcome this, SharePoint 2010 introduces a new Ajax option has been added to many webparts to enable auto refresh of webpart without refreshing the entire web page. This feature is available out of the box in SharePoint 2010 and no additional development is required.

PowerShell for SharePoint
Windows PowerShell is a task-based command-line shell and scripting language designed especially for system administration. Built on the .NET Framework, Windows PowerShell™ helps IT professionals and power users control and automate the administration of the Windows operating system and applications that run on Windows.
Built-in Windows PowerShell commands, called cmdlets, let you manage the computers in your enterprise from the command line. Windows PowerShell™ providers let you access data stores, such as the registry and certificate store, as easily as you access the file system. In addition, Windows PowerShell™ has a rich expression parser and a fully developed scripting language.
With SharePoint 2010 developers and administrators will have full access to the SharePoint API from the PowerShell Command line. Stsadm will continue to be supported and users will be able to continue using it however it will be depreciated over time. PowerShell is a lot more flexible and powerful.

Global - Page inheritance in ASP.NET 2.0
The web.config file in ASP.NET 2.0 allows all pages to inherit from a specific base page class (instead of just using the default System.Web.UI.Page class in all pages).
To import the same set of namespaces on every page, just add them to an Imports sections under the pages element.
I hope this was not possible in 1.1 V.

“Client-only Framework subset” in Visual Studio 2008
The .NET Framework Client Profile setup contains just those assemblies and files in the .NET Framework that are typically used for client application scenarios. For example: it includes Windows Forms, WPF, and WCF. It does not include ASP.NET and those libraries and components used primarily for server scenarios. Approx. 26MB in size, and it can be downloaded and installed much quicker than the full .NET Framework setup package. For more info Click here

SilverLight WebPart
To Develop Silverlight WebPart
1.Create a Silverlight Application first, compile it to get the .XAP file.
2.Create a WebPart project add the Silverlight .XAP file like this
Example
protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
//base.CreateChildControls();
System.Web.UI.SilverlightControls.Silverlight myMediaCtrl = new System.Web.UI.SilverlightControls.Silverlight();
myMediaCtrl.ID = "RajMediaPlayer";
myMediaCtrl.Source = "http://rajwss.com/rajss1/monkDocumentLib/RajMediaPlayer.xap";// media files can be uploaded to this same Document Library.
myMediaCtrl.Width = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.Unit(900);
myMediaCtrl.Height = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.Unit(650);
this.Controls.Add(myMediaCtrl);
}
3.Compile it and deploy to the server.
Server Side changes
1.Install Silverlight SDK on the Sharepoint Server.
The Silverlight SDK can be downloaded from : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8D933343-038F-499C-986C-C3C7E87A60B3&displaylang=en
After the SDK has been installed make sure the System.Web.Silverlight.dll assembly has been registered in the GAC.
i also installed Silverlight.exe(V 3.0) in the server(not required though)
2. Make the following changes to the SharePoint Site web.config file
Add the following to the configuration (copy to NotePad Replace lt; to < & gt; to > )
Add the following to the lt;configurationgt;lt;configSectionsgt; xml:
lt;sectionGroup name="system.web.extensions" type="System.Web.Configuration.SystemWebExtensionsSectionGroup, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"gt;
