  1. Reading @mrpower 's Sunday Paper Round http://snurl.com/n2c92 b4 a day playing with SketchFlow and then .NET RIA Services. Pub lunch too :-)
  2. @InsideRIA Your RSS feed is broken. This page http://snurl.com/n2bq9 gives "End tag Entry does not match start tag feed' error.
  3. Reading "RIA Services July 2009 Preview Major Changes" before bed http://snurl.com/mup3j
  4. Converted client app from Silverlight 2 to Silverlight 3 and Telerik Q2 2009 release. Visual Studio conversion wizard works great.
  5. @westleyl That link to "Win7 RTM might not be available on Monday" post doesn't work. Taken down already to save embarrassment perhaps?
  6. @billreiss My problem was Download page randomly offering old 4.2MB beta version of installer not new 5.7MB one. Suspect svr caching issue.
  7. @brada You have message. Sods' law says that the same download page on the fourth attempt just now suddenly showed me the 5.7MB version??!!?
  8. .. is the SL3 Beta version.Sure enough it won't install complaining it can't find the SL3 BETA SDK. How do I get the wretched 5.7MB version?
  9. Can't get NET RIA Services 2 install. Download page claims 5.7MB file (version needed for SL3 RTW) but click download and it's 4.12MB which.
  10. Interesting that Microsoft have removed the Silverlight version of seethelight.com and replaced it with plain HTML version. The right move!
  11. There goes the morning. "Torchwood: Children of Earth" has arrived on #bluray Hope the last 2 episodes hold up to quality of first three!
  12. Blog post from @timheuer is essential reading if u want to know what's been added to #silverlight 3 since the beta http://snurl.com/miefn
  13. Good news from @scottgu - MSDN Premium sub will include Expression Studio 3 (ie not just Blend) - RTM expected within 30 days :-)
  14. Wondering if Soho fire chaos is going to affect my "Ford ASC mini-reunion" meet-up with Donna, Mal and @neilkidd in Oxford Street at 7pm!
  15. @Costall I've learnt not to "think" where it comes to anything to do with analysing why Microsoft do things they do! Too frustrating!
  16. @Costall .. as invite came to personal email not work email and I don't share personal email address. For SLUG that evening contact Michelle
  17. @Costall Was advised launch was for PR not devs. PR company is handling it. Got an invite out of the blue but still don't know how/why...
  18. @toddanglin I think effort was just wasted. Better to have Coverflow allow charts as well as images or fix animations or better doc ;-)
  19. @Costall UK Silverlight launch is afternoon of July 22nd. No idea why UK is 12 days later than everybody else!
  20. @Costall Telerik charts look nice, but doc is thin and charts fall apart with real data IME. Think camera zoomaround stuff is just silly.
