In this Issue: Gavin Wignall, Timmy Kokke, Robbe Morris, Michael S. Sherotter, and Michael Sync.

Shoutouts:

Andy Beaulieu is the first guest on the Coding4Fun Show - Physics Helper... check it out!

Shawn Wildermuth is holding forth at DevTeach and has his first set of material up: DevTeach Silverlight+MVVM=Easy Demo

If you missed the Reston Silverlight Firestarter, Andrew Duthie has posted the Silverlight Firestarter Deck and Links

I didn't notice this is Issue 611 and being posted on 6/11 until just now:)... this was supposed to go out last night... interesting how circumstances happen, eh?

From:

Gavin Wignall's latest post is about the Projection control in SL3B. I'm not sure what is going on but Gavin's page wants me to load what is apparently the version I already have. The code is all good though!

Timmy Kokke has SilverBullet 2 up... this one is a quick walk through System.Json and the JsonObject.

Robbe Morris used Silverlight 2 and referenced the Google Search API. He did use the JS instead of a REST solution, in case that changes your mind about reading the artile. This one is for you code lovers!

Michael S. Sherotter posted links to recordings of 3 webinars on Silverlight Kits: MySpace, NYTimes, and Web 2.0 APIs... the last also includes a white paper.

Michael Sync is working in Silverlight 2 and gets around the fact that UpdateSourceTrigger is not supported by using an attached property. Michael does point out that you probably need to tailor it for your app, in other words "Mileage May Vary":)

Stay in the 'Light!

  • We Won The One Award I Actually Care About

    Full Scale made the Inc. 5000 for the fifth year straight, the 12th listing across my three companies. Here is why the one award you cannot buy is worth stopping for.

  • Your Customers Build the Features Now

    I let a tool I liked sit dead for a year rather than build the features I wanted. An MCP server meant I never had to, and your customers can do the same to your product.

  • Get the Size of a Directory in Linux the Easy Way

    du -sh for the quick answer, ncdu for the cleanup, df for the disk itself: every command for checking directory size in Linux, plus why du and df never agree.

  • Vim Search and Replace: The Ultimate Guide

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
