Okoboji: a lake, a mythical university, Kevin Moore's blogKevin Moore, Program Manager, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), WinFXA (super rough) Christmas Present- December 24, 2006 It's 1:22 AM. I think I'm getting sick. I'm flying out for California tomorrow. Haven't packed yet. And I'm coding. Some ideas you just have to get working before you can put them down. In no way is this beatiful code. The end-to-end is pretty interesting, though. When I'm back from Cali, I'll clean it up and put it in the Bag-o-Tricks. In the mean time, have fun playing with ZapScroller. Playing with control templates + commands + custom animation. Build. Run. Let me know if you think I'm...http://blogs.msdn.com/okoboji/archive/2006/12/24/a-super-rough-christmas-present.aspx Chat with the WPF team tomorrow- December 21, 2006 Our holiday gift to you: listening.

(Yeah, I'm a geek. I have way more email addresses for friends than mailing addresses.) Anyway, I've been bought into CSS for a while. The start of my projcet aligned nicely with the shipment of Expression Web, so I've been giving it a go. Amazing. The CSS experience is really nice. Managing a site via FTP, dealing with syncing, etc. all very cool. Give it a test run. You'll be happy.http://blogs.msdn.com/okoboji/archive/2006/12/18/expression-web-beautiful.aspx Business Objects are cooler than you think- December 18, 2006 I think it was Paul Stovell's article on Validation in WPF that got me started. The article is amazing and has inspired a lot of my thoughts on what to do with binding in v-next. Paul mentioned CSLA. I wasn't familiar. I dug in. Found Rockford Lhotka. Then I found Expert C 2005 Business Objects. Great book! (at least as of page 53). I figured if we're going to build a foundation that allows easy use of business objects, I'd better understand them deeply. An interesting nugget from the...http://blogs.msdn.com/okoboji/archive/2006/12/17/business-objects-are-cooler-than-you-thin... New hotness, random musings- December 14, 2006 Interacting with 2D on 3D in WPF Holy hotness! Check out details on the WPF3D Blog Check out the Channel9 interview Check out the CodePlex project (and download the toys) Go build games for your XBOX Too many links. A great write-up on FierceDeveloper. Almost makes me want to buy a 360.
