Declarative Tweening
Koen Swikstra put together a great article on tweening and Silverlight, and goes on to define some attached dependency properties that allow him to do all this in xaml... very cool, and source included!
Data Conversion in Silverlight 2 Data Binding
Emil Stoychev has an article up on DataBinding and converting and formatting the data in Silverlight just like we're familiar with doing it elsewhere in .NET ... very useful right now!
ContentPresenter in Items Controls
chrishayuk blogged about a 'hang' situation using ContentPresenter in an ItemsControl... read his thoughts on this.
WebClient and LINQ Demo
Tim Rule has a very nice app using WebClient, LINQ, and Silverlight making requests out to Adobe's kuler API for color themes ... and all the source!
Printouts of the slides, presented on Silverlight 2.0 open house today
Tamir Khason gave a presentation on Silverlight 2.0 for building Rich Internet Applications and has all his materials available on his blog. He has the link to another presentation on July 23rd on the site.. you might want to join in on that ont.
Silverlight 2 beta1 - Best of SilverlightCream
Michael Sync posted this yesterday and surprised me... 'Best of SilverlightCream' ... lol ... well, that's been discussed :) ... but he did a GREAT job of hilighting the ones he likes with screenshots and text ... good job of gathering up information!
Silverlight 2 beta2 - Samples Updated
Michael also reports on the SL2B2 updates that he's been up to ... along with everyone else :)
Silverlight 2 (beta2) Contest Extended - More Cash Prizes for Winners
And finally, Michael reports that he has extended the SL2B2 contest and has received a cash donation from Ivan Dragoev, Product Manager of SilverlightShow ... how cool is that?? ... take a look at Michael's site, and write an article!
Join our next webcast! 15th of July 2008
The Irish Developer's group, Developers.ie, is having it's next .net Coffee Break Show, and Phoenix' own Tim Heuer will be speaking (from Pheonix, or 'the QC' more than likely). This one will be at 3pm GMT, so let me get out my abacus here... I 'think' that will be at 8am Phoenix time, but go to http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/ and figure out your own part of the world :)

Stay in the 'Light!
