From SilverlightCream.com:
Composite Application Guidance for WPF & Silverlight (Prism-v2) Reference Implementation using Silverlight 3 Validation
I just blogged Damian Schenkelman's previous post, and he sent this one which is concentrating on Validation and how he replaced RI's validation with SL3... good stuff!
Silverlight Quick Tip: Resources in RESX files – Image Resources for Localization
Alex Golesh has a post up on stuffing resources into RESX files ... guess I never thought of that :) ... very cool Alex, thanks!
Silverlight Quick Tip: How to force re-binding
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.
Silverlight Charting gets an update - and a TreeMap! [Silverlight Toolkit July 2009 release now available!]
David Anson discusses Silverlight Charting and how it's *almost* aligned with WPF and then introduces the TreeMap with demo code ... posts by popularity, huh? ... think I have a use for that :)
SketchFlow Map: A Mini Tutorial, Part I
Why try to learn Sketchflow anywhere but from the man himself?? Christian Schormann has a great Tutorial series he is starting... definitely one to put in your pocket.
Overview of New Features in Expression Blend 3 + SketchFlow: Part 1
Kirupa at the Expression Blend and Design blog is discussing the new features in Expression Blend as well, and has a part 1 of a series up... plus he has a great link collection in there as well.
Day #4: Communicating Between Two Silverlight Controls
Jeff Blankenburg demonstrates putting two Silverlight apps on a page and then having them interact. He also starts from new project on this one if you haven't seen that.
Day #5: Silverlight Drag and Drop
Jeff Blankenburg has a very nice drag/drop tutorial up this time. The only thing I'd change is I was able to drag all 3 off the xaml page and lose them :)

Stay in the 'Light!
