Background: Extension Methods, Silverlight & Linq

Jesse Liberty has a blog post up that digs into extension methods. Even if you're already familiar with them, this would be a good read to make sure you're not missing something! He also has links out to a couple other good posts... good job, Jesse!

Nigel Sampson refactors his Focus Panel from the end of January to provide additional capability such as binding to the ItemSource.

Stay in the 'Light!
