I mean, as a normal developer, is there something that I will achieve with Expression Blend that I won't using VS? I have no idea of Expression Blend and at first sight didn't look very friendly / easy to learn.
What do you thing out there? It's worth the time learning to use it or I will do the same as I do with VS?
Thanks!
EDIT: I know what Microsoft says about the tools. What I want to know is if you, as a developer like me, tried Expression Blend and found that it was a waste of time or you thought it was a good tool and you stopped developing the WPF GUIs from VS and switched to EB.

C# is a programming language, . NET is a blanket term that tends to cover both the . NET Framework (an application framework library) and the Common Language Runtime which is the runtime in which . NET assemblies are run.
. NET Framework is an object oriented programming framework meant to be used with languages that it provides bindings for. Since C is not an object oriented language it wouldn't make sense to use it with the framework.
ASP.NET Framework NET platform allows developers to create web applications with efficient controls, security, and robust technology for scalable, better, and faster deployment. Therefore, it is one of the most crucial and in-demand skills for a dot net developer to acquire.
The runtime is designed to support multiple programming languages. C#, F#, and Visual Basic languages are supported by Microsoft and are designed in collaboration with the community. C# is a modern, object-oriented, and type-safe programming language.
I have it and rarely use it.
I greatly dislike all the extra markup that gets added to the XAML files, and prefer to know what I'm doing to just dragging/dropping items.
The few times I have used it have been to pull out the default styles or templates of a control, or to build something like a gradient, animation, or path, and then copy/paste the XAML into my project.
It's nice if you're into drag/drop coding, or if you're working on a large enough team to be have a separate UI and Coding team, but other than that I don't use it for solo development since I have to maintain the XAML mess it generates.
