From:

Eric Jensen has deployed a cool Toggle Switch control library on CodePlex... watch the demo then get the bits... or I'm betting you do!

Andrea Boschin's latest at SilverlightShow is on WP7 Data Access and Security, limitations on the platform and what you can do about it.

Gill Cleeren continues his LightSwitch series at SilverlightShow with this episode 6 on beginning Lightswitch Extensibility

Rene Schulte has a great post up detailing all the information about Windows8/Metro/WinRT... including good diagrams and lots of external links

Colin Eberhardt didn't waste any time... while I was in Anaheim for //BUILD, he was building alright... how about this Windows 8 cross-platform WinRT/Silverlight app...

Colin Eberhardt promises lots of tips and tricks in this WPF, Silverlight, and WP7 app, and dang... the screenshots are awesome!

Mark Tucker has a post about the ISETool that we've heard a lot about, but this is a discussion of an issue he was having with restoring snapshots, of course with an explanation.

Mark Tucker's latest is this post about handling database changes on a local database application for WP7.1

Mark Monster references David Kelley's post about making your WP7 app a killer and decided to implement tactile feedback on all buttons with an Attached Dependency Property

Walter Ferrari has part 2 of his Silverlight and Sharepoint series up, this time discussing the "Silverlight Custom Web Part".

Michael Washington has a great tutorial up walking you through the LightSwitch API in great detail.

Michael Washington was busy last week on this LightSwitch tutorial showing the use of custom Previous and Next buttons for scrolling through records rather than using the normal list.

Stay in the 'Light!
