Shoutouts:

New today from Silverlight SDK: Expression Blend 3 released!. Go get your 60-day trial!

Shawn Wildermuth posted his My Favorite Visual Studio Shortcuts and Snippets. Others have taken him up on the "what are yours" question, so this could become a good reference post.

Corey Schuman followed his SketchFlow Controls screenshot up with a Silverlight 3 app: SketchFlow Control Explorer


From SilverlightCream.com:
Dynamic Silverlight Forms
Rabeeh Abla does dynamic Silverlight forms, but starts with an XSD file... yikes... not sure I've seen that done before.
Silverlight 3 object tag param list (aka Where is my asp:Silverlight control?)

A Silverlight TagCloud, Part 1: The WCF Service
Scott Marlowe has part 1 of a two-parter up on constructing a Silverlight Tag Cloud... this one is the WCF service end of things.
Introducing Rx (Linq to Events)
Jafar Husain is very familiar with the toolkit, he wrote the Rating Control! He is exposing the "Rx Framework" that's buried inside the toolkit. I believe this is the first time I've heard it referenced. Check out IObservable/IObserver.

Stay in the 'Light!
