Alex Golesh has a post up on stuffing resources into RESX files ... guess I never thought of that :) ... very cool Alex, thanks!

Rebinding ... read Alex Golesh's post why you might want to plus how he accomplishes it. Hint... they why is associated with his previous one :)
Countdown to Silverlight 3 #8: Style inheritance
Style Inheritance ... Andrej Tozon points out it's not as good as WPF but who cares... it's better than what we had :)
Silverlight 3
Others have introduced Silverlight 3, but when Somasegar does so, it makes sense to pay attention. He's talking about Perspective 3D, DataBinding, and OOB.
