In this issue: Mike Snow, Jeff Handley, James Bacon, and Alex Knight.
If you are NOTAtPDC, a few people have lists of the posts you may be interested in. Most notably is Silverlight @ PDC! by Karen Corby, and for general information Microsoft Professional Developers Conference 2008 Virtual Pressroom. I have been collecting links to PDC2008 sessions in my MSDN Social Bookmarks and also my personal bookmarks.
Devexpress has a timely Silverlight Controls Preview, and they've got some coolness going on there. If you haven't looked at them, do so!
Jeff Paries reports an Important date approaching… which is the release of his book, and he is leaking some more demos on his blog post... definitely look at these and get energized :)
From
SilverlightCream.com:
- Silverlight Tools RTW Released!
- I was out looking for this, wondering when it would be announced... Mike Snow announed the Silverlight Tools RTW release ... lots of goodies in there. I've played just a little with it, not enough to write a blog post, unfortunately, but I'm sure we'll see them later on today... have fun!
- How to skin buttons made easy! Silverlight Tutorial
- Alex Knight posted a link to this on the OZ Silverlight list just this morning... a very nice tutorial on skinning a button... and dang does he make it look simple!
- HelloWorld.ViewModel
- Jeff Handley has done HellowWorld with the ViewModel, came back and posted code, then followed it up with Binding Converters - VisibilityConverter ... all good stuff, thanks Jeff!
- A new forum dedicated to Silverlight game development and design
- James Bacon announced that he and SilverlightGirl have opened a forum dedicated to discussing Silverlight Game development. If you're at all interested, this may be the place to go. Bill, Jeff P, Jeff W, Andy, Cameron, and whoever I left out... could be fun!
Stay in the 'Light!
