From:

Somewhere along the line, I lost track of Steve Strong's series. This part 4 is about drawing circles to scale on Bing Maps [did you realize they were now Bing maps? - me either!].. and when he says to scale he means map scale, curvature of the earth type calculations... cool stuff.

Again Steve Strong has to take into consideration that he's dealing with the Earth and not a flat object while calculating distances between points... and he did all the math for us:)

Two words: Sketchflow Tutorial... 'nuff said! Christian Schormann covers it, we read it!

Gavin Wignall starts with 6 sliders and hooks them up to various elements such as Window Height, Width, or Font Size... nice tutorial Gavin.

Kirupa Chinnathambi gives an overview of Behaviors and how templates in Blend help us out. He then references MSDN and another overview article previously mentioned.

Laurent Bugnion walks us through the installation of his new MVVM Light. It's Click Once, so should be painless... I'll do this later Laurent... blogs first, fun next:)

Expression Blend and Design Blog doesn't have a write-up on it, but if a picture is worth a thousand words they're covered on what they've returned to DeepZoom composer.

Brad Abrams provides a tutorial demonstrating the out-of-the-box goodness with Silverlight and LOB apps.

Stay in the 'Light!
