From:

Milind Soman sent me this and it's a great Blend Tutorial on the StackPanel. Hope to see more from him... keep sending them in, Milind!

The Jordan Knight half of the Knight brothers has initiated a great Deep Zoom project... for all of you (like me) that want to do all the coolness of aggregating things into DZ, here you go! and pay attention, he's not done! oh... did I say it was OpenSource??

I'm trying to catch up with Jeff Blankenburg, but he's got a head-start on me, so I'm going to do 2 a day til I catch up. Have you checked out the header on his blog?? ok this post is on screen transitions, some animation, switching pages... all good!

Jeff Blankenburg's day 3 is about that 'loading' animation or could be used for 'hang on, I'm busy'... another great post... hope everyone is paying attention!

[Mini-Tutorial] Blend 3: SketchFlow Part I

Sketchflow is a very cool part of Blend 3... are you lucky enough to be playing with it? Qixing Zheng is and has a couple tutorials up, this is the first.

I can't seem to get ahead of Faisal and his series... here he is with number 7 already... building on his UITemplates UserControl from last time. Hope you were following along with him as he built this... lots of goodness in there... what's next Faisal??:)

Since the deployment of the latest is ahead of documentation, to help in that area, Janete Perez of the Expression Blend and Design Blog has written some articles to cover some cool new stuff. Hers looks like a good blog to follow... I'm going to:)

Stay in the 'Light!

  • We Won The One Award I Actually Care About

    Full Scale made the Inc. 5000 for the fifth year straight, the 12th listing across my three companies. Here is why the one award you cannot buy is worth stopping for.

  • 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.
