Download the Silverlight 2 Beta 2 SDK Documents

In case you haven't already seen this, a few enterprising folks have found the chm file for the SL2B2 SDK already... go for it... most everyone else has:)

Imger 4 - Hot spotting with Silverlight: Tutorial

Alex posted this very cool application to the OZ Silverlight group yesterday and I told him to send me email when he had an article up on it... This is a very clever image display. It's labor-intensive, so you wouldn't want to do a LOT of this I wouldn't think, but the effect is very nice... good job on the post too, Alex!

Using the ToggleButton control in Silverlight 2 Beta 1

Nikolay posted this to me actually yesterday morning, and I'd not brought the material from home with me, so it didn't get posted yesterday... He's continuing his exploration of the SL2 controls and this time has a nice write-up on the ToggleButton control.

URLs for your Silverlight Streaming Videos

Mike Ormond gives links to and discusses changes that have happened to streaming and how to get your permanent links wired up so you and everyone else can find all your hard work:)

A new Silverlight control - TabControl

And last but certainly not least is The Valley's own Tim Heuer talking about the SL2B2 TabControl... you notice they're providing all of us early-adopters with plenty of reading material while sitting on our hands waiting for B2:)

Stay in the 'Light!

  • Get the Size of a Directory in Linux the Easy Way

    du -sh for the quick answer, ncdu for the cleanup, df for the disk itself: every command for checking directory size in Linux, plus why du and df never agree.

  • Vim Search and Replace: The Ultimate Guide

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
