Seattle Waterfront 1907-2002

Jeff Paries has a cool post up as usual... he reworked (with permission) another site in Silverlight to give a very cool time-change effect on the Seattle waterfront.

Robby Ingebretsen is going to MIX09 no matter what... he's doing one of the pre-conference workshops... but check out his MIX10K entry... clever:)

I'm catching up to Damon Payne in his application-building posts. This one is from October 10, 2008 and is about using a rectangle to lasso objects in the display...cool!

Stay in the 'Light!
