I spent my bus ride from the Sheraton to Microsoft for #mvp09 talking to Andras Velvart about Silverlight... always a subject I enjoy:) Andras told me they have a new app up on the Zoomery site that allows you to upload your MVP Summit pix... check this out... I love the circular 'globe' text cloud of tags... I want to steal it:) Update from Adras... I CAN steal the tag cloud.. look at his FAQ file for a blog post about it, I will be.

I met Corey Miller last night and searched out his blog this morning. His latest post is on Dependency Properties, and I'll work my way back through all his work. Looks good, Corey!

Alex Knight has another great Expression Design tutorial up on vectors. If you're at all interested in graphics or Expression, check this out.. good stuff, Alex!

Terence Tsang has his latest animation up for us, this time it's a "Matrix" text effect... I'm positive I wouldn't have thought of doing so, but he's using color animation to get the effect... very cool!

Stay in the 'Light!

  • Your Customers Build the Features Now

    I let a tool I liked sit dead for a year rather than build the features I wanted. An MCP server meant I never had to, and your customers can do the same to your product.

  • 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.
