Shoutouts:

Koen Zwikstra announced Silverlight Spy 3 RTW ... this is just 2 years from a blog post to RTW... very cool, Koen, and congratulations! Everyone else... go download it!

David Anson posted A preview of upcoming Charting changes [Silverlight/WPF Data Visualization Development Release 1]

David Poll posted a short Update 2: Displaying background activity in a Silverlight RIA application based on comments from readers about issues with the original work.

If you're a Scott Guthrie fan (who isn't, and if you're reading this and you're not... don't make me get up!)... check out a post by Martha Rotter Guathon ... I thought some of those were hilarious!

From SilverlightCream.com:
Silverlight SaveFileDialog doesn't work in Opera
Danijel Stulic has come up with a problem with Opera and FileSave. He's got some code, but would really like a better work-around, any thoughts?
Creating Excel Worksheet From Silverlight
Ryan Shelby has code up that produces an Excel Workbook from a Silverlight DataGrid... not your mama's DataGrid though... and he's going to blog about that later!
Silverlight/WPF: Customizing the DatePicker Control
This is the first of my following Mark J. Miller... he's got a great post up on customizing the DatePicker control to be similar to that on the iPhone ... good stuff.
The CommandManager take 3…
Chris Klug takes one final swipe at CommandManager before letting go of the thread. He has some upgrades, acknowledges it's Silverlight 3 only now, and stands behind his reasoning for a need for CommandManager.
In the Trenches: You’re Making Applications Backwards
If you're trying to do the whole Designer/Developer thing and it's not working for you, listen to Erik Mork's latest Sparkling Client Podcast with Cynergy's own Mike Wolf.
Silverlight ICO/ICON Decoder (Parser)
Joe Stegman built an ICO parser in Silverlight. Pretty cool, you browse to an ICO file and it displays the images... and he's got the source posted!
How To Build a Storyboard Animation for Silverlight in C#
Ever had a need to build a storyboard programmatically? Matthias Shapiro walks through doing just that in his latest post.

Stay in the 'Light!
