From SilverlightCream.com:
XAML Element Binding
Emil Stoychev very quickly demonstrates UI to UI binding ... short and to the point, looks great Emil!
The road to the keynote
Gill Cleeren sent me this and it's not the road to the MIX09 keynote, but it's a tutorial on building a cycling app with heart-rate and VirtualEarth ... not a small app by any stretch!
Sketching in C#: Legos versus Clay
Rick Barraza has a couple stunning SL2 apps running that he did for his session at MIX09 ... lots of discussion and code... very cool stuff Rick!

Silverlight 3: Array Helper
Michael Sync provides an ArrayHelper for SL3B. He will upload UnitTest data later.
Silverlight 3 Beta install experience for users
Tim Heuer details out an install experience that all of us should try to adhere to. I've had some issues on machines that had SL2 but not 3B on it, and it wasn't entirely clear the the 'man-in-the-street' user.
Silverlight 3 Beta - Downloads You May Have Missed
Bart Czernicki reminds us that there were other downloads at or surrounding MIX09 ... and gives us links.
Silverlight 3 - Deep Linking Link
Matt Casto is planning on showcasing SL3B features and is startig with this one on Deep Linking. Somebody messed up the title on SC, but I'll fix it tonight :) Good job on the Good, Bad, and Beautiful Matt!

Now here's one I didn't see coming... Chris Cavanagh is discussing Interactive Fiction... and Silverlight... cool... now I want to do Collosal Cave!

Bart Czernicki takes an educated guess at the RTW date for SL3... use at your own risk :)
iPhone like Touch Interface with Silverlight Grid
Azret Botash has a great tutorial up using SL3 with the devexpress tools to create a 'touch-like' interface. Very nice work on this... lots of detail and all the code!
How to style the caret in Silverlight 3
Nikolay Raychev shows us Caret Styling ... I haven't seen that done before! but it works quite nicely :)
Discovering Silverlight 3 – The Star Wars Scroller
András Velvárt is the Zoomery guy that I met at the Summit, and he sent me a link to this "Star Wars" demo (I'd already had it on my list) combining some of the new features in SL3 ... very cool... looks great my friend!
A quick look at Silverlight 3: Data Validation
Mike Taulty shows us how easy it is to setup the Data Validation that we now have available. This just works so smooth you forget it's there!
