- 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.

- 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!
