Step By Step - Using Silverlight to Access a WCF Service Hosted In a Console Application
Harsh Bardhan at DotNetCurry has a very nice tutorial on using Silverlight with a WCF service in various places and how that effects where to find the policy file.
Tim Heuer discusses Installing Silverlight if you don't have admin priviledges... this works good because it's how I got B1 installed on my laptop.. nothing else would work!
Time also discusses the use of Silverlight wherever you're needing to do file uploading. He has lots of resources linked.
Matthias Shapiro dropped his very nice color picker into Robby Ingebretsen’s Silverlight Particle Generator, and while I can't think of a good use for it, it's dang addicting to play with:)... very cool, Matthias
