colaab - Silverlight 2 collaboration RIA
Bob Thomson sent me a link to colaab the other day and I've been so busy I didn't get a chance to check it out until this morning... whoa... what a bunch of effort this has been. I hope Adam is looking at this :) ... I really like the way the UI works and looks.. fully functional, very useful application, all in Silverlight. Very nice, thanks Bob!
A DNN A Silverlight Dashboard to handle long queries
Michael Washington sent me this earlier today and I really like the odometer control, but hey, that's not the thrust of the post :) ... he's showing a way to deal with long running queries, and has multiple queries running.
Learning CRUD and Data Forms in Silverlight 2
Ken Cox sent me this link to the beginning of a series he's going to do on CRUD and Data Forms. Looks like there may be 8 tutorials total, and the first two are up.
Fun with ItemsControl
Shawn Wildermuth got one up on me really fast. This first one is on the ItemsControl and why we might use it instead of a ListControl in some circumstances ... particularly the ones where we're having trouble.
The Culture of Silverlight
In this second one, Shawn discusses Culture ... as in how we display things... read on :)
My MIX 10K Submission Is Up!
Matthias Shapiro has his MIX 10K submission up and it's adictive... I had to stop when I got to 49, because I wasn't getting this post done :)
