Silverlight Cream for July 10, 2009 -- #634

In this Silverlight 3 is RTW Issue: Pete Brown(2).

Pete is the only one that's submitted any SL3 links to me, so I thought I'd give him the 'Cream post and list all the announcement and resource posts and get them out of my system:)

I have tagged everything in my cloud at WynApse.com as "Silverlight 3", and everything going to my MSDN Social bookmarks is the same. Silverlight Cream already has a tag for version 3, so it's all good!

There are a potful of SL3 posts out there already and I'll get to them, for now I've got these shoutouts (and Pete's posts below). I'm listing most all the lists I've seen so far because in the early download/install cycles I find more is better:

Scott Guthrie as always is the first and foremost authority: with all sorts of good SL3 and Expression Blend info... can you say sketchflow??

Following Scott, Tim Heuer is always good for a great informative intro: and he delivers on the 'what has changed' title... a must read!

And then in no particular order except Timmy was first yesterday (when I couldn't blog about it) and the last few are more than link lists:

Timmy Kokke: Silverlight 3 downloads

Bart Czernicki: Silverlight 3 Relase Download Links and Installation Instructions

Davide Zordan:

Karen Corby: Silverlight 3 Ships

Canadian UX Blog: It’s a big day for RIA!

Dan Wahlin:

Jesse Liberty: What’s New In Silverlight 3 – Wiki Released

Terence Tsang: Silverlight 3 RTW Released!!!

Shawn Wildermuth: Biggest Suprises in Silverlight 3


From:

Pete Brown discusses breaking changes and 'Quirks' mode then follows up with some of the new OOB goodness.

In case you haven't noticed in all the rush this morning, the asp:Silverlight control isn't in the mix. Pete Brown discusses this and what it means to you.

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.
