Shoutouts:

If you've got some time to spend, the User Experience Kit is packed with info: User Experience Kit, and just plain fun to navigate ... thanks Scott Barnes for reminding me about it!

Jesse Liberty is looking for some help organizing and cataloging posts for a new project he's got going: Help Wanted

Emil Stoychev posted Slides and demos from my talk on Silverlight 4


From SilverlightCream.com:
Silverlight 4 Drag and Drop File Manager
Michael Washington has a post up about a Silverlight Drag and Drop File Manager in MVVM, but a secondary important point about the post is that he and Alan Beasley followed strict Designer/Developer rules on this... you recognized Alan's ListBox didn't you?
Changing CSS with jQuery syntax in Silverlight using jLight
Timmy Kokke is using jLight as introduced in a prior post to interact with the DOM from Silverlight.
Essential Silverlight and WPF Skills: The UI Thread, Dispatchers, Background Workers and Async Network Programming
Pete Brown has a great backrounder up for WPF and Silverlight devs on threading and networking, good comments too so far.
Fluid layout and Fullscreen in Silverlight
Paul Yanez has a quick post and demo up on forcing full-screen with a fluid layout, all code included -- and it doesn't take much
Data Binding in Silverlight
Emil Stoychev has a great long tutorial up on DataBinding in Silverlight ... he hits all the major points with text, samples, and code... definitely one to read!
Yet Another MVVM Locator Pattern
Another not-necessarily Silverlight post from Jeremy Likness -- but definitely a good one on MVVM and locator patterns.
The SpiderWebControl for Silverlight
Pavan Podila has a 'SpiderWebControl' for Silverlight 4 up... this is a great network graph control with any sort of feature I can think of... check out the demo, then grab the code... or the other way around, your choice :)

Stay in the 'Light!

I need help! I am not able to have anyone confirm that I can build micro sites with Visual Studio 2010 and Silverlight 3.

This is the process that I would like to have confirmed:
1. A client comes on the website, the first page is general information
2. The second page contains login information (new member ID and password). Plus an e-commerce event.
3. After the new member ID / password and e-commerce event the client will receive a micro site in which he can upload pictures, videos and text files.

Another new member will log on to the first page and follow the same process. Of course there are other events that will take place. I would like to confirm that I can uses Visual Studio 2010, with Silver light create this website and place it in the Azure cloud.

If you can confirm this process, and help with a startup scenario within Visual Studio along with the other Microsoft technologies required, I would appreciate it

Thank you for your time
