From:

Justin Angel has another of his humongous very detailed posts up... this one on the windows 8 apps deployment... reverse engineering, modification thereof, and all that in general.

Kunal Chowdhury talks about the WP7 system tray... how to show and hide it, and why you should or shouldn't do so

Lazar Nikolov follows up his post about adding Wind to the Rain simulation in Silverlight with this one on adding sound effects... again check out his demo... been a long time since it rained in Phx, but I think that's what it sounds like:)

Laurent Bugnion has another quick tip up for WinRT... how interaction with System.Type class in Windows 8 is now down throught the TypeInfo class.

In more of a question-style post, Rudi Grobler has this post up discussing the 'preferred tombstoning method' that he's using and why it isn't working right... and asking for guidance while providing a bunch of links to other sources

Asim Sajjad continues his tutorial series with this post on getting the selected item of the datagrid... which is the subject of many forum posts

Nikola shows how to make a build configuration change that will switch your app from Paid to Free (or the other way)

Igor has a post up describing how to use the ContextMenu to pin a HubTile to the start screen

Stay in the 'Light!
