Silverlight Validator & Input Toolkit

Something we (Matt and I)have been working on for the past few days has been trying to be able to validate input forms in Silverlight. Seeing as how there wasn't a fairly straightforward framework...we decided to build our own! So, without further delay... Here it is, version 1: Silverlight.Validator

Silverlight Attached/Dependency Properties code snippet update
I noticed while working with Attached Properties and Dependency Properties that the code snippet is wrong. It keeps on trying using the UIPropertyMetadata. My guess is that this is an older version of the Register methods. So, here is a link (to my skydrive) that you can download and update your code snippets: cid-af5c4f2a863b6b78.skydri... Just download the two snippets and place them in your "%Program Files%\Microsoft Visual Studio...

Google does it again!
Once again, Google does it again! With the addition of Google Earth, they are becoming the gods of mapping software. All I have to say is WOW! Definitely have to check it out! Going yet another step further from their Google Maps satellite view, you can tilt and rotate the satellite views. Find census data, coffe houses, gas stations, hospitals, schools, food, lodging, everything I could ever dream of! Get driving directions and see the streets as they really are! Kudos goes to Google for this unbelievable...

Travels to work
I hate snow. Especially when I have to drive in it. Now, I have a Mustang with good solid tires (Aquatread 3) and 140lbs of sand in the back. Last night I thought that I'd be OK. First, I can't get out of my parking spot. I tried everything. Rocking the car didn't work and going very slow didn't work. So, I took out the good ole handy dandy ice scraper and proceeded to scrape the concrete. This worked! I was finally out of my parking spot! Now, to get to work. Usually it takes me 20 minutes to get...

First day at PDC
Wow! That's all I can say, is WOW. With a keynote speech from Bill Gates, a presentation of Avalon from Don Box, a look into the new features of Yukon, and I had the privilege of attending a not highly attended presentation of MSBUILD, the universal build engine for Visual Studio (Whidbey). This is such an awesome place to be
