Busy Day in SL2B2-Land: Chris Cavanagh with Soft-Body Physics, Emil Stoychev on Asynchronous SL, Rich Griffin on Skinning Controls, James Bacon on SL restrictions for communication, Avi Pilosof on SL Particle Physics, Jeff Paries with a SL2B2 Etch-a-Sketch, Daniel Gimenez' Vector Space: Zero, Bill Reiss on Silverlight Streaming, Alex Knight with a DeepZoom Gallery, Tamir Khason on SL Sidebar Gadgets, and Piotr Puszkiewicz on SL Object Tag and Instantiating SL.
From:
Chris Cavanagh shows off a physics demo based on Walaber's JelloPhysics library... gotta see this, no way could I describe it... great links and Chris will post the code later after some improvements:)
Tip: Asynchronous Silverlight - Execute on the UI thread
Emil Stoychev discusses using the Dispatcher class to call the UI thread from a callback... all the code, check it out!

James Bacon discusses the restrictions on communication options within Silverlight
Simple Particle Physics in Silverlight
Avi Pilosof sent me a link to his work, and I thought "ok, Part 1", but whoa... he's got 5 parts of this stuff out there... dang, but this stuff goes so far beyond what I've ever been involved in graphically... yikes... very cool stuff, glad it's 5 parts:)
Jeff Paries pinged me that he had some new product out... very cool.. an Etch-A-Sketch... and the thing just works... how cool is that:)
Bill Reiss blogged about this, and it is addicting, so don't go there if you have any writing to do:)... great game, I'll let you read Bill's description.
Silverlight Streaming now supports Silverlight 2 Beta 2
Bill Reiss talking about Silverlight Streaming and leading into his Stack Attack game if you haven't played this... got time now?
Alex Knight posted this on the Oz Silverlight group this morning, and I thought it was clever enough to post here... great pictures too!
Tamir Khason takes on the challenge of consuming a web service from inside a Silverlight Vista Sidebar Gadget... and pulls it all off:)
Instantiating Silverlight: HTML vs. Script
Piotr Puszkiewicz has a couple Silverlight instantiation posts. This first one a general-case what are the options, and how do they affect me.
Structure of the Silverlight Object Tag
In Piotr's second article, he fills in detail surrounding the criteria described in the previous post.
Stay in the 'Light!
