Silverlight 2.0 is going to change the web so much. I've just completed an experimental blog theme for Community Server that uses a Silverlight masthead. You can view the finished result over at Grace's blog . The Silverlight masthead was created...
If, like me, you're trying to get up to speed on Silverlight 2.0 beta 2, you should know about Jesse Liberty's webcast series. Jesse has a new approach to coding webcasts where instead of watching the presenter write code live (which takes time...
