John Papa has Silverlight TV number 55 up and it's an inverview he did with me the day before the Firestarter in December... thanks John... great job in making me not look stooopid:)
Tim Heuer announced a service release of Silverlight... check out his blog for the updates and near the bottom is a link to the developer runtime.
Jeff Blankenburg has been pushing out tips... number 3 consisted of 3 good pieces of info for WP7 devs including more info about fonts and a good site for free audio files
In number 4, Jeff Blankenburg talks about where to get some nice free WP7 icons, and a link to a cool article on getting all sorts of device info
Number 5 finds Jeff Blankenburg giving up the XAP for a CodeMash sessiondata app... or wait for it to appear in the Marketplace next week.
Wow... Jesse Liberty is up to number 13 in his Windows Phone from scratch series... this time it's part 2 of his Custom Behaviors post, and ActionTriggers specifically.
Jay Kimble has released his WP7 dropbox client to the wild... this is cool for loading files at run-time... opens up some ideas for me at least.
Wei-Meng Lee has a big informative post on location services in WP7... getting a Bing Maps API key, getting the data, navigating and manipulating the map, adding pushpins... good stuff
Paul Sheriff is discussing XML files as a database for your WP7 apps via LINQ to XML. Sample code included.
Mike Snow has been busy with Tips of the Day... he published a children's app for tracing their ABC's and discusses some of the code bits involved.
Mike Snow's next post is about the infamous AG_E_PARSER_BAD_PROPERTY_VALUE error or worse in WP7... how he got it, and how he fixed it... could save you some hair...
Mike Snow's latest post is about forward navigation on the WP7... oh wait... there isn't any... check out the post.
Samuel Jack details about 9 hours in day 2 of his quest to build an XNA app for WP7 from a cold start.
James Ashley has a really complete write-up on side-loading apps onto your WP7 device. Don't get excited... this isn't a hack... this is instructions for side-loading using the Microsoft-approved methos, which means a registered device.
Remember Peter Kuhn's post the other day about an Animation Texture Creator?... well today he has some added tweaks and the source code!... thanks Peter!
