Silverlight Cream for June 22, 2008 -- #306

Michael Washington's Silverlight Desktop, Peter Bromberg on Data, Jesse Liberty on new interface, chirshayuk with 3-parts on encryption, Celso Gomes with Grand Piano, 360 Degree View, and Panoramic Viewer, Joel Neubeck with Media Player with Marker Support, Scott Barnes on Binding to Custom Model, and Pete Brown on SL2B2 and RSS.

Karsten Januszewski has ported his samples to Beta 2.

Silverlight Girl reports that she continues to find more Silverlight B2 games, and is keeping her list up-to-date... and notice that the grid of expand-out screenshots is a Silverlight control... looking good!

Koen Swikstra reports a problem with his Silverlight Spy that is caused by the Event bubbling changes in B2.

From SilverlightCream.com:
SilverlightDesktop 01.10.00
Michael Washington has been working on this SilverlightDesktop site for over a month. I've gotten the impression he didn't want it announced previously, but submitted this one, so now we can talk about it! The desktop itself is a bit deceiving in that the real coolness is in the infrastructure built in, and the interactions involved. Take a close look at this... it's well worth a look, fully-downloadable, and he even has a forum setup for it... let's get some action out of this :)
Silverlight 2 Beta 2: Doing Data Part II
Peter Bromberg posted part two of his Data and DataBinding in Silverlight article series at Egghead Cafe. This article uses WCF and LINQ to SQL... so all good stuff!
Look Ma’ No Code
Jesse Liberty produced a portal for his various places on the web, and has a very cool layout and select scheme in Silverlight for the three main Silverlight areas. The article itself discusses the visual (rotating) effects on the menus... pretty cool, Jesse :)
Silverlight Encryption (Part 1)
I was wondering where I missed chrishayuk's first 2 articles of this 3-parter on Silverlight and Encryption, and whoa... he posted all 3 today! This is a cool discussion of Isolated storage and how to encrypt what is going in there. The next article is Silverlight Encryption (Part 2) - Generating the key , and is followed by part 3...Silverlight Encryption (Part 3)
nibbles - Grand Piano SL2B2 and States
I had seen Celso Gomes' GrandPiano in SL2, did not realize it used states when I saw it, and for some reason didn't post about it. Then maybe it's me, but I find the nibbles site not only very interesting, and filled with great info, but it's vexing to find my way around! Rather than try to explain how I found this article and the next two, I am simply posting the links that go directly to the "download or run" page.
Oxigen 360 degree view - Image Sequencer
In ths application from Celso, he takes the 'bike' of his logo, and rotates it using a circular gadget... try it to see... I love it... this is the 'thinking outside the box' stuff that I hope we see more of in Silverlight rather than finding ways to make desktop controls for the web!
360 degre Panoramic View
This application almost made me sick... lol ... no, really... I got the mouse too far to one side and the panorama started spinning and my stomach started to spin with it until I closed my eyes :) ... very cool!
Silverlight 2 – Media Player with Marker support
Joel Neubeck and Tim Heuer have been sort of trading back and forth, and Joel ratchets up the ante with Maker support in a Media Player ... all good... read what Joel writes!
Silverlight: How to Bind Controls to your own Custom Model.
Scott Barnes of MossyBlog took off on binding controls to a custom model, and uses a shopping cart as an example.
How to Retrieve and Process an RSS Feed in Silverlight 2
Pete Brown takes off in this example on RSS with Silverlight and even though I know it's been in there, very few articles have touched on it, so this is good stuff!

Stay in the 'Light!
