Shoutout:

If you're going to be anywhere near Mission Viejo, California on June 19th, set your calendar for this Victor Gaudioso event: New Speaking Event: Microsoft Book Signing/Silverlight 4 Presentation

SilverLaw has another example of his Flexible surface app up: Drag & Drop Flexible Surface - Silverlight 4


From:

Matthias Shapiro has a discussion posted about StringFormat binding in Silverlight 4... he dug in hard on this... well worth a read.

Colin Blair is discussing some possibilities for exposing collections of entities from the ViewModel... his favorite: PagedCollectionView. The next post discusses this deeper.

Colin Blair continues in more depth on the PagedCollectionView, this time handling paging, sorting, and multiple loads.

Mike Snow's latest Tip of the Day is up and is about validation - specifically validating after your user has pressed "OK"

Marlon Grech has an Rx-less solution to code notifications of properties changing... this is a WPF and Silverlight solution and all the code is downloadable.

Victor Gaudioso's latest outing is in response to a query from a reader and is a video tutorial showing how to add multiple bitmap effects to one object.

Stay in the 'Light!
