Shoutouts:

The Mashooo folks have the winning entries up for their S Prize contest. I'd like to thank them for the honor of participating as a judge. I didn't look at any of the games prior to going through the 10 finalists because I didn't want to be swayed. Since I was a judge I won't comment on the winners, but I will say I'm not disappointed :) Check them out ... the other 7 are all winners also! Mashooo S Prize Silverlight Games Contest

Danijel Stulic sent me a link to this awesome school timetable software completely done in Silverlight: School timetabling just got better using Silverlight. I did a trial, and it looks and works great. I hope you get time to blog about this, and if you do, let me know!

Silverlight and F# happily ever after
I've blogged about Cristian Merighi's work before... but have you looked at his blog? ... I love the Silverlight on there! In this post he talks about the F# templates that are available (and links), and then tackles building a custom IValueConverter that translates a PointCollection into the area of the relevant generic Polygon.
Arranging Shapes in a Circle with Expression Blend – Part 2
Walt Ritscher has part 2 of his great Expression Blend tutorial up on creating spinning thingies to let your users know your app is busy, or at least give them something fun to look at if it locks up :)
Silverlight 2.0 Authentication Services
Al Pascual demonstrates creating a Silverlight Authentication Service in Sl2, so that Silverlight will use the authentication cookie.

Vijay uses the .NET RIA Services walkthrough application and demonstrates using a repository to make it more Unit Testing friendly.
Creating NikeClone With Silverlight Part-1
Faisal took aim at the original Nike Site and decided to take a shot at doing it in Silverlight ... and it looks great to me! ... very cool Blend tutorial along the way! and by the time I saw the first one, part 2 was up: Creating NikeClone With Silverlight Part-2
