From:

Rudi Grobler discusses and shows off a CodePlex project that is a Power-Point addin for WP7!

This is another of Paul Patterson's early Lightswitch posts... good information even if before the beta

Dragos Manolescu continues with his WP7 and GeoLocation work by this time calculating distances between locations... wow... I can think of a lot of apps for that one!

Rob Tiffany has a great post up on WP7 covering things like JSON and REST... cool stuff, Rob!

Mike Snow has another tip up and shows how to change styles on controls at run-time.

Gergely Orosz has a great post up about the fundamentals of Silverlight with an eye toward WP7 development... this is a great place to begin if you have not!

Did you know Jesse Liberty is keeping up a MindMap of all the iPhone to WP7 stuff he's been doing?... check it out... it's pretty darn cool!

Jesse Liberty also has his latest 'YAP-Cast' up... and he's talking with John Papa about MVVM and patterns... and you can also call in with comments about the YAPCasts...

Kirupa Chinnathambi continues with his WP7 Application Bar icon discussion with an explanation of why your icons should be white with a transparent background.

Alex Knight has a great post up on Design considerations when approaching development of a WP7 app... if you're like me, you need all the help in that area you can get:)

Nigel Sampson shows how to bind HTML to the Browser control using dependency properties, and we're talking WP7 here...

Stay in the 'Light!
