From SilverlightCream.com:
MVVM, design time data, and Blendability
Rich is pushing his new XamlNinja brand, so that's how I'm posting this. I *really* like the look of the site!.. this first post out there is on MVVM, Silverlight and WPF and using design-time data. Did I say I like the way the site looks :)
Building N-Tier business applications with .NET RIA Services – Part I
Zoltan Arvai has an article up at SilverlightShow on N-Tier bussiness apps in Silverlight with .NET RIA Services ... ok, say that 5 times real fast! ... this is part 1, so climb on and follow him as he continues... this first lives up to the quality I see from the folks at SilverlightShow.
Writing WPF/Silverlight compatible code. Part 2: Dependency Properties
Alan Mendelevich has another part of his WPF/Silverlight series up and is discussing dependency properties this time... and a lot about what Silverlight doesn't have.

Dimitris - Ilias Gkanatsios gave a presentation at DevDays09 in Greece and produced a Twitter client... check out his presentation and code on the post.
Styling a ListBox aka Autopsy of a ListBox
Chris Klug lifts the hood on the ListBox and shows you how to make it your own... style that is :)
Creating Custom Easing Functions in WPF 4 (and Silverlight)
Pete Brown's been spending a lot of time blogging WPF (all tagged here) and Windows 7 (all tagged here), but this time out he included some Silverlight and is showing how to create your own easing function... and this is not in Blend :)
Silverlight Flip Clock
Fons Sonnemans didn't have much to say about the 'Flip Clock' he built, but he's provided us the code, and I really like the way it looks, thanks Fons!
Grouping data in a Silverlight DataGrid
Tim Heuer demonstrates grouping Data in a DataGrid even without the declarative model of adding GroupDescriptors in Silverlight 3... and it works very nicely! ... code included of course!
Implementing CoverFlow in Silverlight 3
Jeff Prosise leverages a CoverFlow control by Darick on Codeplex into a cool demo with gestures... all with source.
MVVM with Prism 101 – Part 6: Commands
Mark Miller is up to Episode 6 on his MVVM and Prism excurstion, talking about Commands, threads, IAsynchResults... long post with lots of code goodness.
