What are the differences between .NET 2.0,3.0 & 3.5?

Answer :-

Good Links:

http://24x7aspnet.blogspot.com/2009/05/difference-between-net-203035-framework.html

In short:

2.0 => framework that shipped with VS 2005 VB 8.0 / C# 2.0
3.0 => same framework as 2.0 + WCF + WPF + WF
3.5 => all the above + LINQ technologies and will ship with the next VS including VB 9.0 and C#
