Silverlight Cream for January 29, 2009 -- #501

In this issue: Andy Nogueira, Ken Cox, Alex Knight, Charles Petzold, Fredrik Normén, Page Brooks, Michael S. Scherotter, and Peter McGrattan.

Shoutouts:

My Phoenix buddy Dan Wahlin had part in a Silverlight book that just hit the street: Professional Silverlight 2 for ASP.NET Developers Released ... very cool, Dan!

Daniel Calbet wrote to me with the following two links. They are WPF, they're MVVM, and they're well-done, so definitely worth checking out: Using the Viewmodel pattern to provide Undo / Redo in WPF and part 2: Using MVVM to provide undo/redo. Part 2: Viewmodelling lists.


From SilverlightCream.com, lots of familiar names and lots of XAML discussed today:
