Shoutouts:
Jordan Knight has a demo up of a project he did for DigiGirlz:, hopefully we'll get source later:)

From:
Alan Mendelevich reports an issue when drawing lines with odd coordinate values. He originated it in Silverlight 3, but it is there in SL4RC as well... check it out and leave him a comment.
Siyamand Ayubi has an interesting post up on animating WPF or Silverlight pages to make them progress in the manner of a PPT slideshow.
Rudi Grobler has a list of 'tasks' you can do with WP7 such as PhoneCallTask or EmailComposeTask... looks like this should be plasticized:)
Rudi Grobler is also investigating how to use the GPS, Accelerometer, and Vibration in WP7 with a bunch of external links to back it up.
Josh Smith has a solution to the problem of initializing design-time data in Blend (did you know that was an issue?)... the solution is great and so is the running commentary between Josh and Karl Shifflett in the comments!
VinitYadav built a Yahoo Messenger app in Silverlight and has detailed out all the ugly bits for us on the post, plus made everything available.
Dave Campbell's first post at DZone cracking open a beginner's series on Silverlight. If you're expecting something heavy-duty, skip this. If you're wanting to learn Silverlight and haven't jumped in yet, give it a try.
Stay in the 'Light!
