From SilverlightCream.com:
Sneak preview
Rob Houweling snuck this preview out of Jeff Paries' book, or rather put his own spin on one of Jeff's animations... doncha just want that book NOW??? definitely fun stuff to see work!
Mountain Pass Tower Defense
Devin Rose sent me this game link, and I thought it looked like something everyone would want to take a look at. You probably know by now I'm not a gamer, and I lost in short order, but I'm impressed... good job, Devin!
Learning about WPF Effects
Adam Kinney blogged about WPF Effects he learned from Nikola Mihaylov ... good stuff Adam!
Introducing the "Dirty Little Secrets" Screencast
Shawn Wildermuth started a podcast Dimecast? series of 10-15 minute videos. I put the first one on my Zune, and it's actually very watchable... great job... and you know it's good material!
Silverlight Facebook Application – MSDN East Coast News (what I’ve been working on lately)
Pete Brown has been hard at work on a Silverlight/Facebook application and has blogged about it at least once before... this time he has a great layout of the application for us to view.
REMIX UK - "No Silverlight Application is an Island" Code
Mike Taulty posted the code to his Silverlight session at Remix UK, then followed it up by answering a few questions from the presentation with blog posts: Silverlight and WPF - Sharing Library Projects , and Silverlight - Drawing Outside the Control Region
"Silverlight 2 Animation" Demos and Slides
Andy Beaulieu of Farseer Physics fame gave a presentation at CodeCamp 10 in Waltham MA, and has all his materials available... so what if you didn't go??
Flash vs Silverlight: Image Advance Carousel
Terence Tsang may have yet another demo up, but this is the one I captured this morning before a very busy day began... a very cool Advanced Carousel...and boy do I have a use for that... remember, all his work has the source!
Updated Ball Trainmaster Cannonball Watch to Silverlight 2
I think the Ball watch that Michael S. Scherotter did in SL1.0 is the first post of his I blogged ... I know for sure it blew me away with all the detail... he's now converted that to SL2 and all the source is out there!... thanks, Michael!
Creating Custom Controls – A Common Starter Application
In going along with his Custom Control articles, Jesse Liberty has posted a common starter app that he's going to build on ... and that sounds like a great idea to me... something we'll get used to seeing and being familiar with as the blog articles roll past.
DataGrid sample with SelectAll Checkbox
Lee reappeared with this post of xaml code for a datagrid with a select All checkbox, then immediately followed it up with DataGrid sample with SelectAll Checkbox(2)
Visual effects while displaying an image. Part II
In this second, but not his last on the subject, blog post, Gerard Leblanc demonstrates some more very cool visual effects on images

Stay in the 'Light!
