Think you know what Smooth Streaming is all about? Check out what Michael Wolf has done... watch the stream being put back together... too cool!

Silverlight Cream for July 13, 2009 -- #637

In this Issue: Steve Strong(2), Christian Schormann, Gavin Wignall, Kirupa Chinnathambi, Laurent Bugnion, Expression Blend and Design Blog, and Brad Abrams.

From SilverlightCream.com:
Bing Maps Silverlight Control Part 4: Drawing Circles To Scale
Somewhere along the line, I lost track of Steve Strong's series. This part 4 is about drawing circles to scale on Bing Maps [did you realize they were now Bing maps? - me either!] .. and when he says to scale he means map scale, curvature of the earth type calculations... cool stuff.
Bing Maps Silverlight Control Part 5: Calculating Distance
Again Steve Strong has to take into consideration that he's dealing with the Earth and not a flat object while calculating distances between points... and he did all the math for us :)
SketchFlow Concepts: An Overview
Two words: Sketchflow Tutorial ... 'nuff said! Christian Schormann covers it, we read it!
Data Binding the Slider control in Silverlight
Gavin Wignall starts with 6 sliders and hooks them up to various elements such as Window Height, Width, or Font Size... nice tutorial Gavin.
Making it Easier to Write Behaviors
Kirupa Chinnathambi gives an overview of Behaviors and how templates in Blend help us out. He then references MSDN and another overview article previously mentioned.
Installing the MVVM Light Toolkit V1.1.0.0
Laurent Bugnion walks us through the installation of his new MVVM Light. It's Click Once, so should be painless... I'll do this later Laurent... blogs first, fun next :)
Resurrecting a Beloved Deep Zoom Composer Feature
Expression Blend and Design Blog doesn't have a write-up on it, but if a picture is worth a thousand words they're covered on what they've returned to DeepZoom composer.
Business Apps Example for Silverlight 3 RTM and .NET RIA Services July Update: Part 1: Navigation Basics
Brad Abrams provides a tutorial demonstrating the out-of-the-box goodness with Silverlight and LOB apps.
